One large piece of oak. Detailed as "Wood from cut" in Lab Report 930241. This is a flat piece of worked wood that is worn, cracked and splitting. One edge is partly curved with the opposite edge more fragmented and with three jagged points. The wood is worked on both faces. There is a small fragment that may have been readhered during lab work but has since become detached.
