单词 taporæx
释义

taporæx

Old English

Etymology

From Old Norse taparøx (small axe)[1][2][3], from Old East Slavic топоръ (toporŭ), from Proto-Slavic *toporъ, probably from an Iranian language.

Judging by dictionaries, the axe is only mentioned as tool to define shore width by throwing it from a ship that is floating next to shore during high tide (Danish king Cnut gave to Christ Church at Canterbury the Sandwich port and landings along River Stour from Sandwich to the river mouth).[4][5][6]

Compared with francisca (throwing axe)[7] and also:

  • Axe 1 and axe 2 (600±100 AD) from Ozengell cemetery, Kent (fig. 1 and 2 in Hewitt[7], No. 1 in Archaeologia[8])
  • Axe from grave at Coombe, Kent (No. 2 in Archaeologia[8])
  • Axe from Richborough Castle field, Kent (No. 3 in Archaeologia[8])
  • Small iron axe from Colchester, Essex ("Small axe" in Archaeologia[8], No. 2 in Akerman[9])
  • Axe (?950±150 AD) from River Thames at London (No. 1 in Akerman[9])
