Unless something an expert can see that dates this to antiquity, it's likely a souvenir of that same time. Btw, if it is an ancient find ... that glue glob sure ruined it. The older glues might have been animal glue based, so try heating it with a hair dryer if you want to experiment getting it off.[/QUOTE]
