[Bonetools] Rép :Literature concerning Sus scrofa mandible and tusk offerings needed

[SIDERA Isabelle]

Dear Erika, I transmit a paper related whith Cerny (around 4500 BC).  
It is a culture from the late Neolithic in the Paris Basin in which  
boar tusks are a funerary basic symbol. Boar tusks are used as well  
as funerary symbols in Michelsberg culture in Belgium. In  
Grossgartach toumbs, young Neolithic of western Central Europe, there  
are also. There are plenty others in Central European cultures and  
Chalcolithic, but generally associated with settements not toumbs. I  
put on our web site two papers where you will find all these  
references. You will receive a message so that you will be able to  
load it.

Kind regards, Isabelle
