A wooden fragment consisting of two connected stick-like elements.
The object appears to be a simple wooden artifact, possibly a tool or a part of a larger object. It consists of two slender, stick-like elements joined at an angle, with the larger piece showing slight wear and discoloration that suggest age. The style is utilitarian, with no visible decorative elements. It is uncertain what the original use might have been based on this fragment alone.
