Battle axes and clubs

These weapons were skilfully made from various stone types. Battle axes with knobbed butts are imitations of the axes forged in copper which sometimes came into the hands of the farmers, but which would have been rare at that time. Flint halberds may also have been imitations of metal weapons.
