	What is this? « on: April 19, 2011, 04:52:35 am »

Please help?
I am new to this forum and do not know if this is the correct way to ask for assistance.
Hunting for a shipwreck I found what appears to be a statue under sand and water. Preliminary tests indicates that it is made of weak brass/copper.
Is what looks like a bird on top of a man's head just imaginary?
Kind regards
Eugene

That will need some serious preservation before anyone can even guess as to what that is. Good luck.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

I will just go with my first impression of an ornamental hand axe. The axe head is on the bottom?? Maybe a bird head on top??
