Making Must Farm (Pt.1): A Bronze Axe

Join Mark Knight and Dr. James Dilley as they introduce us to the Must Farm Pile Dwelling Settlement and take a closer look at some of the artefacts that were found, dating back to the end of the Bronze Age (1000-800 BC)! The axe is as much a symbol of our prehistoric past as it was a tool that was important to people thousands of years ago. Thousands of bronze axe heads have been found across the UK, usually as isolated finds, but sometimes as large groups or hoards. Rarely are they found with their wooden handle. Preserved wood makes up the greatest proportion of material preserved at Must Farm, which goes some way to showing the importance of it in prehistory. The Must Farm settlement was built on a platform on piles over a river channel. The piles were destroyed by fire, causing the structure to collapse into the river, thereby preserving the contents in situ.
