"What Is It???" Wednesday: Help a Sister Center Out





Last week at FAS Annette Snapp, director of the Southwest FPAN Center, showed me photos of this artifact. Aha, a true WIIW mystery!



WHAT IS IT???

More from Annette:


This artifact was found in the mangroves by a local resident who was fishing south of Marco Island in the Cape Romano area.  It is metal, but it is not magnetic.  The green patina suggests something perhaps with copper in it.  By weight it is pretty heavy and the ferrule end has two holes punctured through it apparently to attach it to a wooden handle.
