Fees

A Neolithic knapped flint hand axe, probably North African, circa 4000 BC; 15.5cm long; and a small collection of fossils and stone specimens. NOTE: The Neolithic hand axe was the subject of research by its Late owner. An email from the Curator of the Palaeolithic Collections at the British Museum (dated 2008) states that he has not seen examples of this colour flint from north Africa before, but that it bears a striking resemblance to British examples
