Stone anchor from Liméns (Cangas do Morrazo)

►DESCRIPTION: ![] (http://oi67.tinypic.com/34zzx52.jpg) This two-holed stone anchor was found in 1982 in the cove of Liméns (Cangas do Morrazo, Spain). This type of anchor has two holes, one at each end of the stone. These anchors could be used in two ways, both of which are known from recent ethnographic examples. In the first example, one hole took a rope, the other an arm - usually of wood. In the second, only recorded on fishing gear, both holes took ropes. Wear-patterns on the stone should make it possible to distinguish which method was used.Today it belongs to the [Museum of Pontevedra](https://sketchfab.com/museodepontevedra) collection. Measurements: 61x30x8 cm. Check out the full description in galego [here](https://skfb.ly/NGQ7) ►AUTHOR OF THE 3D MODEL: [Eloy Martínez Soto](https://sketchfab.com/eloymarso)
