[Bonetools] Bone Amulets from Stobi

[Lóránt Vass]

 Dear Zlatko,
I share Mr. Feugère's opinion about the phallic amulet. They appear quite frequent in infant or female graves in Roman period, usually in the Late-Republic-Early Imperial Age, and they are found many times associated with other amulets of various raw material as part of crepundia (apotropaic necklaces worn by little children to avert the look of the Evil Eye). I have also found something similar in Aquincum in a cremation grave. Although it does not look exactly like yours, we can consider it a later version of the same morphological type.

 Dear Zlatko,

I believe they are late LT or Late-Republican phallic pendants, you find them on two pages of artefacts.mom.fr : AMP-3003 and AMP-3004.

Dear colleagues and list members,

I am writing a paper about roman bone amulets and pendants discovered at
Stobi in R. of Macedonia. I struggle finding anything published elsewhere
specifically for 3 items of the same type. All of them comes from burials,
two of which from cremations. Please have a look at the attached photo.
Any
comments or references about these or similar items will be gratefully
received.

Furthermore, the paper includes amulets of the type "Hercules club",
"Phallic amulets" and perforated boar tusks, similar of which, are more or
less present in catalogues of various publications. But, I would
appreciate
greatly if you can share any pdf./e-book in which such items are being
discussed additionally (function/origin/manufacture/development).

Best regards,
