[Bonetools] neolithic human teeth as personal ornaments

Dear All,

I am writing an article on human teeth used as jewelry, since I have  
two examples in my assemblage -the Neolithic lakeside settlement at  
Dispilio, Greece- a mollar and and milk-tooth, used as pendant and  
beads respectively. I have found all the known other instances  
(paleo-chalcolithic) were human teeth are used as ornaments, but  
still, I may be missing quite a lot.
I am sending you a pdf file with  the Dispilio human teeth, a map with  
all the other instances, and a bibliography and catalog of them. (if  
this is not applicable through the mailing list, do send me a e-mail)

Any help will be appreciated!

Fotis
