Some considerations regarding the copper axe from Cosmeşti (Galaţi County, Romania)

  • TITLU în română: Unele consideraţii privind toporul de cupru de la Cosmeşti (judeţul Galaţi, România)
  • Subiect: In this article is presented a copper axe discovered on the territory of Cosmeşti (Galaţi County). As the context of this artifact is not known, it will be analyzed in comparison with other similar items, made of metal, or stone. The axe had been mentioned in the archaeological literature, but it was not extensely discussed. This is the reason why, we intend to introduce a series of information about this artifact, into the scientific circuit. The closest analogies for the axe from Cosmeşti could be found in the Carpathian space, but also in the North-Pontic and Caucasian regions, while chronologically it could be assigned to a time span comprised between the final Eneolithic and the Middle Bronze Age. Considering the morphological features of the object, we consider that it belongs to the Bronze Age. If we look at the extremely neat aspect of this axe, but also taking into account the fact that it has no traces of use, we can assume that this artifact is rather a symbol-object than an implement proper.
