| Description / विवरण | Pear shape hand axe made on river rolled pebble. It has flat circular form at the buttend and pointed functional end. Removal of flake scars on either sides resulted in formation of linear mid rib portion. In profile it shows linear straight lines on the lateral edges of the tool which indicates the application of controlled soft hammer technique. It closely resembles with acheullean hand axe culture. |
