The sizes of Nails and Hammer used at the time of  Jesus's Crucifixion

The iron nails ๐Ÿ’… used to crucify Jesus were likely around 5 to 7 inches (13 to 18 cm) long, with a square shaft about 3/8 inch (10 mm) thick. The hammers used to drive the nails would have been relatively small, hand-held tools, not the large, heavy hammers used in modern construction.
๐Ÿ‘‡
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Nail Size: The nails were tapered iron spikes. While some theories suggest different numbers and placement of nails (3 or 4), the general consensus is that the nails were driven through the wrists or hands and feet.

Nail Material: The nails were likely made of iron.

Hammer ๐Ÿ”จ Size: The hammers used to drive the nails were likely smaller than those used in modern construction, suitable for a more precise and controlled driving of the nails.
