Description
Pin-Beater (NLM-78D3B5)
A bone pin-beater found near Melton Ross, Lincolnshire
This pin-beater was made from a large mammal limb bone, trimmed to a rounded point and smoothed and glossed by wear and handling. Single-ended simple weaving tools are a class linked to the Anglo-Scandinavian use of the vertical loom.
