Description: | A copper alloy awl or leather working punch / tool of Roman or medieval date. The awl is pointed at one end, widening to form a roughly square-shaped sectioin in the middle before narrowing at the opposing end, possibly into a rectangular tang or small chisel. These objects are very hard to date out of context as their form has change little since the Bronxe Age, however the patina on this example suggests a Roman, or more likely a medieval, date.
