[Bonetools] FW: fishhook

[Christopher R. Moore]

Dear Marloes,

Thanks for sharing!  We have similar single-piece fishhooks in North America.  I've attached a scanned copy of a paper I recently published on fishhooks from some Archaic sites.  Better quality images can be found attached to the version on my Academia.edu page - http://uindy.academia.edu/ChristopherMoore/Papers

Dear Marloes, 
These prehistoric fishhooks are even found in Israel, i.e., in Kebara Cave on Mount Carmel (Natufian) and in Nahal Batset (Ceramic Neolithic):

Dear all, 

A request from a colleague, who has found this fishhook on one of the Dutch beaches. 

Any thoughts or parallels? 

Thanks and all the best for the new year! 

Marloes
