Hammer Pins /

Updated: 11/04/204

One of the differences between Needhams are the hammer pins. Two different types of pins have been uncovered. The most numerous are the single round head pins followed by two flush pins. There seems to be no rhyme nor reason for application of the pins. Hammer number 1 has flush pins but so does hammer 1160. This study is on-going and we may never know the reason for the different pins.
