[Bonetools] shuttle again-3

[איתן איילון]

Thanks, Sonia. I guess the dark material between the two bright sides is antler?

Thanks you for the images.  This shuttle is definitely made in horn. I can't say if it is cattle or sheep/goat without microscopy but it does seem quite thick so I suspect it is cattle.



All the best,



Sonia
