Does anyone have a link or information that would explain the process of making celts and axes? How large of a piece of material would be needed to start? How did they work it down to the size and shape intended? How did they sharpen? How did they polish? I found a large oblong shaped rock today...approx 7 inches long and 4 inches in diameter that appears to be made of the same material that the celt I found earlier this week. I found it in the same creek as the celt...in fact within about 15 feet. It doesn't really show and obvious signs of being worked but I wonder if it could have been used as a hammer stone or maybe was another piece of raw material? Here is a picture....
