An ancient Egyptian drill, often made from bronze or stone, was used primarily for boring holes in wood, metal, or stone. It operated by a rotary motion, typically powered by a bow-style mechanism that allowed the user to apply continuous pressure while rotating the drill bit. The design facilitated precision in creating holes for various purposes, including woodworking, jewelry-making, and tomb construction. This tool exemplifies the ingenuity of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship and their advancements in technology.

How did the ancient Egyptians make fires?
The fire drill was a very simple technology known almost everywhere in ancient times. It is closely related to the drill used in making furniture, jewellery and boats and it used the principle that a piece of hardwood, when pressed firmly and rotated against a piece of softwood, generates heat by friction. The fire drill uses a flat piece of softwood with a small groove and hollow, into which the hardwood drill is placed vertically. The drill is rotated by means of a "bow" - a short stick with a cord which is wrapped twice around the drill. Downward pressure on the drill is also required. The drill does not produce flame or sparks, but hot embers from the softwood, charred by friction - these can then be used to start a fire.
