[Bonetools] Drilled red deer antlers

[Noelle Provenzano]

Hi everyone,

 

I would really appreciate if anyone could point me to some analogies about
these objects :

 

They are made with a central beam longitudinally bipartited (splited) and
come from Second Iron Age of South of France. 

The lower side is just regularized and doesn’t show any other usewear
traces. The superior side is natural. The two laterals holes present strong
deformations (but irregularly distributed and directed) due to the cross of
a flexible bond, the central perforation doesn’t show always so many usewear
traces.

If someone has an idea
. Thanks a lot !

 

Noelle
