[Bonetools] RE : drilled phalanx

[PUTELAT Olivier]

Hello Alice. The edges of the hole are not very worn and the decased is old 30 to 50 years. I do not know anything more about his conditions of health. I send you now a better photograph. All the Best. Olivier.

Objet : Re: [Bonetools] drilled phalanx


Dear Olivier,
       Are the edges of the hole at all worn or does it seem as if the object was prepared for the funerary ceremony? The phalange seems to come from a rather old and decrepit individual. Are there any parallels between the age and health conditonss of the deceased and this old, somewhat crippled (exotoses on the body of the phalange) bovid?

	Dear colleagues, we found in Entzheim-Geispolsheim, Alsace (France) a recent Neolithic human grave. Various bone tools were under the skeleton. Among them is an perforated 1rst bovid phalanx (photo). Do You have any idea and data on this object : tool, amulet ? Many thanks in advance. Olivier.
