Hello Marloes,

I gathered together the information about the English examples some years ago in the enclosed 
contribution, which was published as 'The Bone Gaming Piece', in R. Ivens, P. Busby and N. 
Shepherd, Tattenhoe and Westbury.  Two Deserted Medieval Settlements in Milton Keynes, 
Buckinghamshire Archaeological Society Monograph Series 8, Aylesbury 1995, 390-3. Lots of 
references to them in there but no bibliography in the pdf unfortunately: I will try to remedy that 
!

Dear all,


Does anyone has parallells for this medieval disc? It has been found in the Netherlands and is 
dated between 1000 and 1400 AD. MacGregor and Ulbricht (Schleswig) interpret these discs as playing 
pieces.


Best wishes, Marloes
