I think that’s a good guess but I think the general consensus is it’s a very early practical multi tool for trades. The multi sized holes are gauges the balls are likely for knitting or weaving or something like that,
Could be but they’re very hard to produce round without breaking off or voiding , you’d figure they would be a bit more like spiked legs of the only purpose was to act like a series of legs.
Best guess, right? Nobody really knows

I keep going back to thinking the balls aren’t really part of the direct function, but more like easing storage, or just handles or some shit.

Yeah that’s a pretty good point. Maybe the round things were a byproduct of something else. 😅 Nah, I dunno.
But I’m sure we’ll figure it out in the Lemmy comment section, right? 🫶💪💁♂️ (😆 Can you imagine?)
