Interesting there are no signs of wear or weathering on an item that old.
I wonder if it might not have been from a plundered grave and made for the burial, so no wear or signs of use?
wow this would make me smile if I found one, did you find it or buy it .?

it sure would make me smile! i bought it online.
kwqd - trophy axes are often found w/ no wear - just used ceremonially. Although i'm sure that some have been from plundered graves in some parts, they are most often found along streambeds in the southeast.
