EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a collection of Flat Hoe Axes made of greenstone are displayed at the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen. Dating back to the Mesolithic period, around 7500-5500 BC, these artifacts were discovered on the Danish islands and Jutland. The Flat Hoe Axes are an intriguing example of the early human industry in Northern Europe. These tools were not only used for hoeing and cultivating the land but also served as multipurpose objects, used as axes and weapons. The greenstone, a hard and durable volcanic rock, was locally sourced and valued for its strength and resistance to wear. The discovery of these Flat Hoe Axes provides valuable insights into the prehistoric agricultural practices and technological advancements of the early human communities in Denmark and Scandinavia. The presence of these tools suggests that the people of the time were adaptive and resourceful, utilizing the natural resources available to them to meet their basic needs and develop their society. The National Museum of Denmark is home to a vast collection of prehistoric objects, offering a glimpse into Denmark's rich history. The Flat Hoe Axes, with their historical and cultural significance, are a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the early human populations in Europe. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and studying our past to better understand the present and the future.
