ROMAN ENGRAVING TOOL
200
Very fine tool made from cast cu-alloy. Its shank is thin and of circular cross-section and it displays a different tool at each end: a point and a flat pointy chisel-type tool. It may have been used for wax/pottery or soft wood engravings, but it is difficult to date since it was found out of context.
