A near complete cast copper alloy awl or other leatherworking tool, likely of later Bronze Age date (c. 1250-700BC), but potentially dating from any time between the Bronze Age and the Medieval period (c. 1250BC-AD 1500).  The awl is essentially complete barring some minor surface loss, particularly towards the tip.
