EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a detailed display of core axes from the Maglemosian and Kongemose periods, showcased at the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen. Dating back to the Mesolithic era between 8500 and 5500 BC, these axes served as essential tools for both work and battle during the human forager societies of Northern Europe. The Maglemosian and Kongemose periods represent the early stages of the Danish Stone Age, marked by the transition from the Paleolithic to the Neolithic age. During this time, humans relied heavily on hunting, fishing, and gathering wild plants for their subsistence. The core axes, made primarily from flint and greenstone, were indispensable for various tasks such as butchering animals, preparing hides, and constructing shelters. The core axes in this photograph exhibit the intricate details of their design, with flakes skillfully removed to create sharp edges. The axes' simple yet effective design demonstrates the advanced lithic technology of the time, which allowed humans to adapt to their environment and thrive during the Mesolithic period. This impressive collection of core axes offers a glimpse into the daily lives of our prehistoric ancestors, providing valuable insights into their industry, society, and the tools that shaped their world. The National Museum of Denmark's careful preservation and presentation of these objects allows us to appreciate the ingenuity and resourcefulness of our ancestors, making it a must-visit destination for anyone interested in prehistory.
