Site: 18CV60 Angelica Knoll Context: N/A (See Site Summary) Context Date Range: c. 1650-1770 Metal: Copper alloy Maker’s Mark: None Description: Undecorated bodkin fragment with a slightly pointed end, one long eye, and a groove running along its entire length. While the object is plain and looks a lot like a sailor’s needle or tapestry needle, the proportions and material indicate that it is probably a bodkin for a lower class individual who could not afford silver or an inscription. Inscription: None |
