Artifact, Unidentified

Description

A small piece of white pine sawn and carved to form a right angle at one end somewhat like a corner chisel. The rest of the pine blank is shaped to a tapered cylinder. A piece of sheet metal is cut and bent to a similar right angle with the remainder rolled around the tapered end of the white pine. Both the wood and metal ends have hard white accretions firmly attached (perhaps plaster or paint).

Notes
