A late Early Medieval - early Post Medieval bone point. This bone point has been made using an animal's long bone; the cancellous (inner sponge-like structure of the bone) is visible at the blunt end of the point. The surface of the bone shows extensive use\/wear polishing, although some may be attributed to the wear from the foreshore environment. Jackie Keily notes this point could have functioned as a punch and it is very difficult to ascribe a precise date to this object.<\/p>
