We’ve collected 24 tools for you to figure out. Most of them come from the past, some even from ancient times, and a few are still used today.

Your job in this quiz is simple – look at the picture and try to pick the correct use for each tool.
Let’s see how many you can get right! 🔧

17 tally stick. Much, much older than Roman. The picture is of the Lebombo bone found in S. Africa and is over 40,000 years old. These are subject to differing opinions as to their use and certainly not confined to recording debt. Tallies of livestock, a sort of calendar or purely decorative/ritual markings.

BP's "source" (the tiny link under the photo on the left-hand side) literally says "Actually, it’s hard to know how these devices were used." It mentions that sometimes they were used as calendars/day trackers and sometimes as livestock tallies. And yet those answers were "wrong", according to BP.

The scythe WAS used?.. It's still widely used for the same purpose.
