BAC23 - NON-FERROUS

Broome Aircraft Wrecks

NON-FERROUS artefact recovered from Broome Aircraft Wrecks

Funnel (?) - Artefact originally thought to be funnel as it has a hollow cylindrical shape with a conical top and a spout protruding from the centre of the cone. However, a metal plate blocks across where the cylinder shifts angle to become the cone. The artefact is hollow on either side but the plate blocks access, therefore it cannot be a funnel. Unsure of function. One side has remnants of a metal hook or handle. Small amounts of erosion and thin layer of concretion over artefact.
