The Magnified Axe (part 1) - Ep 15

It’s time for an axe-tremely axe-citing episode! Ash and Tilly have to deal with a tricky situation over at the Bazkardum Society of Dwarfish History, who want to know how to classify a recently donated polished stone axe. Luckily, they have help from special guest Dr Amber Roy - experimental archaeologist and microwear analyst who specialises in prehistoric axes. In this first of two episodes, the three questers discuss the role of axes in fantasy fiction, and what a microscope might be able to bring to the conversation.
