Unfinished dices, bone

During excavations of the Bromsgården neighbourhood in Örebro, archaeologists have found various raw materials and semi-finished objects. Among them were these two rod-shaped bonea blanks. They were to be further processed into dice, but for some reason the products were never completed. The presence of blanks, semi-finished objects and waste indicates that many of the finished products used in Örebro were made on site.
