  • It had to be broken up like the body, or buried like the body, and we do have hundreds-if not thousands-of axes in Britain that appear to have been given that kind of treatment;
  • 它需要像尸体一样被分解,或是像尸体一样被埋葬。在英国曾有成百上千的斧头被这样处理:
  • buried in graves, deposited in ritual ceremonial enclosures, and even thrown into rivers.
  • 埋在坟墓里,放在祭祀的场地里,或是扔进河里。
  • That our axe has no signs of wear and tear is surely a consequence of the fact that its owners chose not to use it.
  • 我们的斧头全无使用过的痕迹,这一定是因为它的主人并不打算使用它。
  • This axe was designed to make a mark not on the landscape but in society, and its function was surely to be aesthetically pleasing.
  • 制造它的本意不是用来砍伐山林,而是要在社会中留下记号,发挥让人愉快的美学功能。
  • Its survival in such good condition suggests that people six thousand years ago found it just as beautiful as we do today.
  • 它保存得如此完好,表明六千年前的人们同我们一样欣赏它的美丽。
  • Our love of the expensive, the exquisite and the exotic, has a very long pedigree.
  • 我们对奇珍异宝的喜爱确实由来已久。
