Probably...for those "hard to reach" areas...after a strenuous session in the frigidarium, or a gymnasium.

Some kind of flogger or whip, like used in finish sauna (hot steam bath) today?
This would have been a caldarium for heat and a frigidarium to cool, in roman times

TAA DAA! only an oily fellow like yourself would get it! I really thought catfish would get it: especially when he mentioned saunas and Roman baths. A Roman aged bronze one: no doubt used in Egypt by Antony: after finishing his arduous Cleothenics...sans toga!!?? Over to U! @ Jimbuna: I've no doubt there was a little back scratchin' 'twixt those two miscreants!

And so what is this?
