Bâton de Commandement, Mystery Tool.

Hey guys, it's Adventure Van here with a blog about a weird tool that no one really knows what it was for. Named the Bâton de Commandement, it's something that doesn't look like it has a obvious purpose. Theories for it range from a sign of power, to a quoit, to shaft straighteners and clothing tools. Despite the many theories, no one can really pinpoint one. Which is what makes it such a weird tool. But obviously, mankind had a need for it, as it's all over villages and tribes. What could this purpose be?

What could they be?

Adventure Van, confused?
