Description The larger of the two objects is just over six inches long. It is made of a solid piece of wood that was turned on a lathe. The wood is fairly heavy (lignum vitae?). The round ends are of unequal size--one is 2" in diameter, and the other is 1 3/4." Each round end has three finely inscribed lines around its circumference. The smaller object is 4" long, and it tapers ever so slightly from 3/8 to 7/16" diameter. The two items were together when found, but I am not positive that they are related. It does not look as if the smaller piece was ever attached to the larger one. Neither piece has wear marks. I have no idea what these items are for. Your input will be appreciated!
