Roman StylusDescription
Everyday writing in the Classical Age was not done with pens on scrolls. That was for literature, legal matters, or religious texts. Everyday letters and notes were written with a pointed metal stylus onto wax-covered small wooden boards, which were closed to protect the script. After being read, the wax was smoothed out, and another letter could be written. Bought from eBay in 2010.Collections
