Title
Awl
Description
English: A very small and short copper-alloy Bronze Age awl. Measuring 33.2mm in length, 5mm in width at its widest point and 4.8mm in thickness, at its thickest point. It has a rectangular cross-section the four edges of this awl appear to be faceted. Both tips taper to a sharp point c1.1mm in thickness and c3.6mm in width. This awl is unusual due to its small size, which is presumably due to extreme wear and re-use sharpening.
