[Bonetools] FW: astragali again

[Etan Ayalon]

Dear Alice,
They belong to a tour-guide who travells to most remote places on earth. I happened to see them in his house and he sent me the photos. I don't have more details.
Etan

Etan - would you be willing to send a more detailed account of these objects to the WBRG webpage and say a little more about the use or even manufacture wear on these bones. Also a refrence wouldbe nice unless you were the one collecting the dats. -In that case I hope you publish this soon!
 
Cheers,
Alice

	Dear all,
	The 3 astragali were used by the shaman-woman of the Tsatsen (I'm not sure about the spelling)tribe near Lake Chupsgul, north Mongolia (near the Siberian border). They raise deers whose astragals are used to tell the future. The decorated piece of antler is also used by this shaman.
	Sorry for the "left" writing - couldn't fix it.
	Etan
