[Bonetools] early neolithic bone tools

[Selena Vitezovic]

Thanks, mr Greenfield.

Alice, here are some additional photos of the antler. I think that the rose
was on the broken part, I have also two other bases of shed antlers, with
similarly cut tines, but without this large portion of beam, and with
working surface on the antler base.
Starčevo is also poor with antlers in general - with the exception of sites
from Iron gates - but then I found almost 20 antler objects from Starčevo in
Pančevo museum, all very carefully worked.

best, s.
