Dear Zooarch,

In 2010 at Gohar Tepe, Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age site in Iran, my
colleague found what he thinks is a human bone tool. He'd like to know of
any similar finds, either human or animal bone. What are the most likely
uses of this tool? He's mostly interested in specimens from the Near East,
but anything similar will be welcome.

If you're interested in some more details, here is a link to a short report
about the find: http://www.anthropology.uw.edu.pl/04/bne-04-06.pdf
