Threshing was done by beating the grain using a flail on a threshing floor or by making donkeys or oxen walk in circles on the grain on a hard surface. A flail is a tool used for threshing. It is made from two or more large sticks attached by a short chain; one stick is held and swung, causing the other to strike a pile of grain, loosening the husks.
