Is there any evidence to suggest that wax tablets were carried in a pouch. I would think that they would be carried in a satchel of sorts along with other smaller personal gear.
The reason I ask is because a friend sent me a picture of the attached photo and said that he read somewhere that this was most likely used for wax tablets. I would have to say that IF this is a reconstruction of an actual artifact given its shape, I would have to say that it could have been used for wax tablets. I am also aware that there could be many other uses as with any other pouch.
If the mods deem this pic unappropiate, please let me know.
If anyone has any info on something like this including some pictures that can help me with a reconstruction it would be appreciated.
