very small battle (??) axe

[Evgeny_K]

Hello, Ibrahiim
Thank you for reply!
It's very interesting, because my 'baby-axe' was dug up in central part of the Russia. Am I right suggesting that this axe could be used by Turkic peoples (Bulgars?), who lived in this region ages ago?
Regards,
Evgeny

Salaams Evgeny_K I see no reason why not. Smugglers, herders, farmers...In Arabia it occurs in Hadramaut, Mussandam and the Wahabi region to name a few. There are several interesting articles in library please see for example:

.
Certainly agree that this is not a child's item as a blow from this would be potentially deadly. This fulfills the requirement for a defensive weapon, tool, walking stick and camel stick.
