1. Title: Acheulian Flint Hand-axe from Wolvercote, Oxfordshire This image showcases an authentic Acheulian flint hand-axe discovered in Wolvercote, Oxfordshire, England. Dating back to approximately 500,000 to 100,000 years ago, this ancient artifact is a testament to the early human presence in Europe.

This hand-axe, made from a single piece of flint, is a prime example of the skill and craftsmanship of early humans during this time. The hand-axe's distinctive shape, with its pointed tip, curved edges, and symmetrical body, was designed to serve multiple purposes. It could be used for cutting, scraping, or even as a weapon.

Wolvercote, a picturesque village located on the outskirts of Oxford, has a rich archaeological history. Numerous discoveries, including this hand-axe, have been made in the area, providing valuable insights into the lives of our early ancestors. The Acheulian hand-axe from Wolvercote, Oxfordshire, is not only an essential piece of prehistoric history but also a beautiful example of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of early humans.
