Game Piece - 3D Model

3D model of a game piece. This bone gaming piece probably dates from the 15^th century. It shows a zoomorphic shape on the front, probably a unicorn (also interpreted as a stag) on the front, while the back is plain. It resembles a tableman, a piece used in playing backgammon. It was excavated on Eilean Mor on Loch Finlaggan. A number of items associated with board games were discovered in excavations at the former residence of the Lords of the Isles at Loch Finlaggan on Islay (in Western Scotland). Islay had a long tradition of board games, influenced by both Norse and Gaelic culture. [Original Object: 30mm x 30mm]
