Stone handaxe
THIS small handaxe is one of the most beautiful in the British Museum. It is made from quartz with attractive amethyst banding, a difficult material from which to make tools because it is extremely hard. The toolmaker would have had to hit with considerable force and accuracy to remove flakes. Such a high degree of difficulty makes the thin, symmetrical shape of this piece a masterpiece of the toolmakers’ art.

If you find it difficult to follow connected English speech, don't worry. We British are well aware of the complexities of our language and only too happy to simplify our speech for the benefit of the 'challenged' foreign user. Here are some useful phrases to learn. Slip them into the conversation whenever you're in trouble!

Sorry, what did you say?
Could you repeat that, please?
Pardon?
What?
Eh?
Huh?
I'm not with you. Come again.
I haven't a clue what you're on about. What language are you speaking?
Could you try drawing a picture?
