[Bonetools] WBRG bonetool November 2018

[Hans Christian Küchelmann]

Dear Ariel,

I chose the brushes from Jerusalem you sent to the bonetool mailing list in April 2014 as this months bone tool on the WBRG website. See
https://www.wbrg.net/bonetool-of-the-month-archives/ <https://www.wbrg.net/bonetool-of-the-month-archives/>

Would you like me to add some information, e.g. about the site they were found in or is there anything published about those brushes in the meantime?

With kind regards.

Christian

> A few weeks or months ago Etan Ayalon asked for parallels to a fragment of a tooth brush from Wadi al-Sheih (Haifa, Israel). Here are a few fragments of tooth brushes from Jerusalem probably dating to the late Ottoman period or British Mandate. They are only slightly different from Etan's brushes (there are no line incisions on the back). Some of them have holes piercing through the brush, so maybe they were attached to a frame from a different material?
> Another interesting brush is a large rectangular one with many holes, all of them pierce through the object, so it must have had a frame of wood, horn or other material or it was double sided. The rims around the circumference are painted brown-red, and on the sides there are the remains of a hard flaky substance (maybe glue). The holes are arranged in a nice pattern - two high rimed holes surrounded by 8 regular holes.The opposite surface is completely flat without the alternating high rimed holes (therefore I think it was covered).
