Socketed Ax-Head (Celt)
The Socketed Ax-Head (Celt) by unknown artist is an ancient bronze artifact. It is roughly axe-head shaped, wider at the top than the bottom; the top edge is nearly horizontal with slightly upturned ends. The bottom tapers inwards to form a neck with a circular hole on the left side. The surface exhibits a dark patina with lighter brown spots. The background of the image is light gray.
