A roughly cut antler tine of unclear purpose or possibly incomplete. One side has a round drilled hole, the other has a series of notches. There is no trace of any wear.
It may have been intended to have a cord wound around the notch and attaching to a peg in the opposing drilled hole, however as the hole is small the arragnement wouldn't have been able to withstand much weight. Other antler incomplete and test pieces from Site A suggest this object may also be unfinished.
Site Name: Rhuddlan, Denbighshire
Notes: From Rhuddlan Site A NGR refers to Rhuddlan Castle. Collector worked freelance on behalf of the Clwyd-Powys Archaeological Trust.
