[Bonetools] have you seen

[Salima Ikram]

Dear All,

I have a dim recollection of seeing some objects consisting of a cattle horn that has been filled in with wood (ethnographic)--it is possible the wood could then hold some sort of metal part and that the horn was the handle. Or the tips of the horns might have been used as tools--boat related or fishing related. Have found objects such as these from ancient Egypt

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
