[Bonetools] bone pavement

[Serjeantson D.]

Hello Colleagues
This example of a 'knucklebone floor' in the Jura is very interesting. 

I have just discovered another one in England, at Uppark, a National Trust house in Sussex. It is part of a outdoor game larder designed by the architect Humphry Repton. 

I would be very interested to hear about other examples. Also, does anyone have recommendations about the best way to conserve such floors? This one is outdoors, and probably needs some conservation.

Dear Alice, dear all,

Please, have a look, I'll come back afterwards.

Maybe would it be good to present that of the archezoo mailing list too ?

Alice, I remember Sandor Bökönyi telling of such thing(s) in Prague. Can
you précise with Laslo Bart. ?

I have seen a case in Spain recently (the picture is still in the camera).

Your's.
