An extraordinary Acheulean handaxe knapped around a fossil shell circa 500,000-300,000 years ago.

From West Tofts, Norfolk.

Bit telling that for years and years evangelical religious extremists have been allowed on university campuses with their bullhorns and horrific imagery where they harass students into physical altercations and when students complain to the university’s administration they just shrug their shoulders citing freedom of speech but when those same tuition-paying students start protesting against war and genocide they call SWAT
