Can anyone identify what these items may be. They may have come from a shipwreck?

The first item is Turkish origin.
It was used to measure the member of the eunuchs, prior to being allowed into the harems.

Can you give a bit of a description of the objects - are the 2 lower images discs or what?

No, it is not a disc. The flat side is the reverse side.
Isn't it interesting to have all the tools to print bold, or colour, or enlarge the font.
Mike will provide a bottle of wine to the first person to do it.
