Early Medieval iron awl
Four reasonably well preserved examples of awls with quadrangular tangs and points of circular section, doubtless used for leather working. 40 and 41 have been much worn down. Similar awls have benfound at Cahercommaun (fig 29, 512); Lagore (fig 42, 1646, and 239, the latter very worn); Carraig Aille II (fig 11, 456 and 460, the latter worn); and Buston (fig 232).
