great sins. If you ask me what proof I have 
for these words, I say it is because I am 
the punishment of God. If you had not 
commited great sins, God would not have 
sent a punishment like me upon you."

Dear all, 

I'm sendig two images (attached) from a fragment of a bone object. It was found in Vale Boi, a portuguese Upper Paleolithic site, during this summer field work. Observed at naked eye, it seems to have been modified to create the pointed part. Any help on the identification of the object or parallels will be much appreciated.  Thank you for the attention. 

Best regards,
