You know those "ritual purpose" explanations? Well, that appears to me to be valid here -- just an amulet or charm for the superstitious. If not that, then a gambling throw. Either one would make sense since most of these have been found in old Roman military contexts. But by all means, enjoy this video, it's excellent, and I've set the time index to skip the opening ad.

It can’t be a measuring device for a brothel because the holes are too small.

I know what that is. It’s a device to used steal votes for the Roman Senate. Interestingly enough, Democrats use an updated version of this device to steal votes today.

As the ancient Romans used to say: Furtum verum est.
(that’s my tagline in Latin)

First thing that came to mind, and this is ONLY a thought, could it have been a jig used for field repair of chainmail

That ranging idea was interesting. But that Corona theory must be correct! ;^)

That’s discussed in the video, and about a dozen or more vids concentrate on that one thing. It appears to be BS on the face of it. Comical to watch people make that work.
