Description: | A copper alloy incomplete awl. It is 50mm in surviving length, one tip is missing due to wear. At one end it has a circular cross-section, 3mm in gauge, but over 23mm this expands slightly to a square section 4mm square. From this point to the opposite end it tapers from 4 to 3mm in breadth, but in the other axis it tapers to 0.5mm, creating a chisel-like blade. This probable awl has been examined by Colin Pendleton and could be Bronze Age or Roman in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Plunkett, Tom - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
