Hohokam Axe
Late unridged 3/4 groove axe form. Little shaping is apparent other than the hafting groove and the formation of the bit. The X/Y edges are basically parallel over the length of the axe and terminate in a broad, rounded bit. Little attention has been paid to the head and it remains irregular. The A/B faces are somewhat convex and terminate in a narrow wedge shape. The bit edge is polished and the only well formed part of the axe, there is little polishing anywhere else. This axe was made in a time when attention to details and stone workmanship in general was in decline.
