[Bonetools] WBRG website updates

[Christian Küchelmann]

Dear list memmbers,

I added some new items to the WBRG website that may be of interest  
for somebody.

Sean Rice reqest for comparative items for the miniature sword found  
at the Links of Noltland recently is now added to the Mystery  
Bonetool page at
http://www.wbrg.net/index.php? 
option=com_content&task=view&id=33&Itemid=20

Within the "Various Links"
(http://www.wbrg.net/index.php? 
option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=32)
there is now a link to a Canadian project dealing with the virtual 3D  
reconstruction of a Thule whale bone house:
3D Thule Whalebone House Project
internet: www.pro.rcip-chin.gc.ca/carrefour-du-savoir-knowledge- 
exchange/osbaleine_3d_etude-whalebone_3d_study-eng.jsp

There is also a related publication now included in the reference  
database:
Levy, Richard & Dawson, Peter (2008): Structural Analysis, A Tool for  
Testing 3D Computer Reconstructions of Thule Whalebone Houses. in:  
Posluschny, Axel / Lambers, Karsten / Herzog, Irmela (eds.): Layers  
of Perception. Proceedings of the 35th International Conference on  
Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology (CAA),  
Berlin, Germany, April 2–6, 2007, Kolloquien zur Vor- und  
Frühgeschichte 10, 134-139, Bonn

The "Bone workers" section
(http://www.wbrg.net/index.php? 
option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=33)
contains some new links to present day bone workers from New Zealand,  
Moldova, Lithuania and Germany:

Natasha Popova: http://www.natashapopova.com/
Virginijus Narkus: http://www.vilkas.info/
Astrid Dingeldey: http://art-asta.de/ and http://ars-asta.de/

And finally there is a major publication on worked bone topics that  
at least I have overseen so far:
Bertrand, Isabelle (2008): Le Travail De L'os, Du Bois De Cerf Et De  
La Corne À L'époque Romaine: Un Artisanat En Marge ? - Actes De La  
Table Ronde Instrumentum, Chauvigny (Vienne), 8-9 Décembre 2005,  
instrumentum 34, Montagnac
