Found this iron piece at a colonial site today. I have dug a bunch of old farm tools, but have no idea what this could be? Anyone know what this is?

Maybe for a yolk? Or part of the rigging for a team of oxen or horses?

I believe it's from a whiffletree.2e96f7871c72ae7d113a3ca3a912659e--horse-harness-rustic-homes.jpg

AKA whippletree or singletree. Most had rings instead of hooks, but, I guess it would depend on what you were attaching to it.
