Abstract:
(In French) Further discoveries of axe-grinding stones have followed the publication in 1963 of the Overton Down example. Stone 37 of the Kennet Avenue at Avebury has a grinding surface so near the ground as to suggest that its use as a polissoir preceded erection in its present position. It recalls the axe-sharpening stones in W Kennet long barrow. Still another polissoir has been found on Hackpen Hill, Winterbourne Monkton, with a deeply worn ellipse edged by a pronounced groove. Such fixed grinding stones are much more commonly known on the Continent (especially in France) than in Britain, partly because attention here has only recently been directed to the type, but also perhaps because many of them have been broken up for building stone.
