Hi there,

I'm doing an assignment for my Early Middle Ages class, and one of the questions is a riddle left by a medieval scribe on a manuscript! Can anyone help me out? Here it is:

I am sitting above a horse which was not born,
Whose mother I hold in my hand.

Thanks!!
Andrea

Guessing....

Sawhorse.

Mother is the saw. (The saw I have in my hand)
Father hamer.
Together they made the sawhorse.

Thanks so much for your help! The sawhorse answer made a lot of sense, so I used that one. We shall see if it's right!

Thanks again!
