Dear Jenn Richards,
Images of points (straight, barbed, harpoons..) related to the following sites of your interest for what concerns the Preboreal/Boreal/Eraly Atlantic chronozones securely dated :
> points from Friesack, Hohen-Viecheln, Duvensee, Mullerup, Vinde-Helsinge ......and a lot of other sites

are all published in :
DAVID É. (2004) Technologie osseuse des derniers chasseurs préhistoriques en Europe du Nord (Xe-VIIIe millénaires avant J.-C.). Le Maglemosien et les technocomplexes du Mésolithique. Monographie de thèse [on line] <http://web.mae.u-paris10.fr/recherche/mpEvaDavid.html> Nanterre, Maison Archéologie Ethnologie : 667p.

and those from same periods and securely dated :
> Zvejnieki
are all published in :
DAVID É. (2006) Technical behaviour in the Mesolithic (9th-8th millenium cal. BC): The contribution of the bone and antler industry from domestic and funerary contexts. — In: L. Larsson & I. Zagorska (Eds.), Back to the origin; New research in the Mesolithic-Neolithic Zvejnieki cemetery and environment, Northern Latvia. Lund, (Acta archaeological lundensia. Series in 8°; 52) : 235-252.


I suggest you also may have a look on "The collection of stone age bone and antler artefacts from lake Lubana" published in 1999, by L. Vankina, Riga, Latvijas Vestures Muzeja Raksti Arheologija n°4 (290p) which presents, supplementary to the original Clark's inventory list (Meso of Northern Europe 1936), only stray finds. However, it gives a good opportunity to loook at the great variability of the bone and antler points morphologies when considering the Hamburgian, Ahrensburgian and Mesolithic cultures of the Northern Europe.

Best regards,
éva david

> I am currently writing my MA dissertation as a student at Durham University - Prehistory Dept.  While I have collected a large number of images of Mesolithic bone and antler barbed points, and have personally viewed the collection from Star Carr at Cambridge University, I would like to have more images, and would like to view more artefacts.  Does any  member of the list have a suggestion as to museum catalogues, websites with images, or know the current location of points from Friesack, Hohen-Viecheln, Duvensee, Mullerup, Vinde-Helsinge, Zvejnieki or any other sites with a large number of recovered points?  Thank you so much for any information,
