A bone spindle whorl. A domed spindle whorl with a central drilled hole (diameter 100 mm). The spindle whorl has been made from a femural or humeral head (the ball joint of an upper limb bone) from an animal. The dome shape is the natural shape of the bone. The base is flat. It is in complete condition, with a few small nicks here and there but not much sign of wear. The diameter of the spindle whorl is 37mm, and it weighs 12.19g. Bone spindle whorls are found on Roman, Early Medieval, and medieval sites, and therefore dating this particular item is difficult.
