This bone cross was originally found in a confusing mix of contexts and 
based on that data could be placed anywhere from the 8th - 13th C.

Stylistically it is similar to the Saxon pectoral crosses of the 7th-9th C, 
but I am unaware of other finds like it in bone. Does anyone know of 
similar, more securely dated, bone/antler examples from Northern/Western 
Europe during the Medieval?
