Early Bronze Age Flat Axehead


Early Bronze Age Flat Axehead Actua lSize
An almost complete Early Bronze Age cast copper-alloy undecorated developed flat axe (c. 2050 - 1700 BC).
This implement is sub-rectangular in plan and pointed-oval in side view. In plan, the end of the butt is rounded and the sides are parallel and have a width of about 23.0mm and a maximum thickness of 13.17mm. The long side-edges of the axe have been raised to form slight flanges. These seem to have been cast rather than hammer-raised. The septum begins about 44.0mm from the butt where it is slightly bevelled rather than being a stop. At this point it has a thickness of 10.98mm and tapers towards the butt where it is 1.49mm thick. In plan, the blade curves and flares outwards to form a crescent shape. One of the corners of the blade and a small portion of the butt end is missing due to breaks. The cutting edge is evenly curved but slightly asymmetrical.
This axe is corroded and abraded overall and has small patches of a dark green patina. It has active bronze disease. There is no indication of any decoration.
Length: 103.29mm; width: 42.30mm; thickness: 13.17mm. Weight: 158.52g.

iPod Shuffle 2G

ipodShuffle2G_ICON
On September 12, 2006, Apple announced the release of the second generation iPod Shuffle, calling it "the most wearable iPod ever". First shipments of the unit were slated for an October 2006 arrival, but actually started shipping on Friday, November 3, 2006. The second generation initially featured a lone 1 GB model in a silver brushed aluminum case similar to the second generation iPod Nano and the older iPod Mini. The new model is less than half the size of the first generation model at 41.2 x 27.3 x 10.5 mm (1.62 x 1.07 x 0.41 in), and is the size of the iPod Radio Remote available for iPod Nanos and 5th generation iPods. Apple claimed it was the "world's smallest MP3 player". This size includes the new built-in belt clip; the actual unit itself is thinner, with the entire device weighing only 15.5 g (0.55 ounces). The power/shuffle/no shuffle switch from the first generation version was separated into two controls to avoid an accidentally selected mode of operation. The formatting of the iPod itself is new to Apple, as the 2G (2nd Generation) shuffle will only format itself to FAT32. iTunes issues a warning that the iPod is incorrectly formatted if brought to the Macintosh format HFS+. All previous iPod models have allowed the usage of either the Mac format or the Windows format.

Elgato Thunderbolt SSD

elgatoThunderboltSsd_ICON
Before Elgato started working on what became the most advanced TV and video solutions for the Mac, we were part of the revolution of innovative storage technology. The vast majority of FireWire drives contained Elgato software, and even early flash-based products were powered by Elgato.
Over a decade later, we were thrilled when Thunderbolt was introduced. So we decided to go back to our roots and create what we have always been longing for: a truly portable, ultra-fast external drive.
