[Bonetools] Unusual find

[Etan Ayalon]

Dear friends, Sarah and Alice,
This interesting tool does not seem sharp enough to be an awl or a
needle (although we don't have a section here). The fixing/tying hole +
2 depressions show it is part of a complex tool. What about one of
several teeth of a medieval hay-fork or winnowing-fork? At least in the
Levant they are very common (but made of wood).
