Cylinder
Section of long bone, probably cattle metapodial. The medullary cavity has been cleaned out forming a cylinder. About half of the bone has been turned, both inside and out, the exterior decorated with circumferential grooves. There is a tiny section of screw thread at this end. The remaining element has been roughly shaped with a saw and file.
