[Bonetools] ivory ?

[François Poplin]

Dear Putelat,

I apologize, but I allready told you, on one of these pieces, at 
Saint-Germain-en-Laye, in a dark corner or a room of that Museum where 
you show it to me,  that it comes from the base of tusk, cut 
transversally, the cementum getting separate ot the dentin with time.

I told you too that it would be very good to make at least one C-14 
datation. I beg it as a big good action for Science.

Sincerely.
