Commentary

Concerning this hoe with tang the extreme top is forcibly deformed, however there are no further traces for abrasion, except for the hammer blows on the outer side of the blade. On the shaft tang there are characters. Size of the hoe: length 23,8cm, width 10,9cm.
There are no detailed informations about the find circumstances. It is only known that the hoe was acquired by the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum (Tiroler Landesmuseum Ferdinandeum) with other discoveries of Sanzeno from the antiquary Josef Schenk from Meran / Merano 13th November, 1903.
The hoe is typical to comparable objects of Sanzeno. There are two versions of these hoes: the shaft tang of one type is curved outward, an inward curving of the shaft tang is typical for the other model. Probably the late Hallstatt period could be taken as dating.
