[Bonetools] worked bone and organic material from F?nt?nele, Romania

[Kinga Winnicka]

Dear Imola,

The "organic material" looks like burnt (human?) bone. Parts of the bone
object are also burnt. I suspect that it comes from the same archaeological
feature (cremation?). Regarding the use of the object -- I looked at the
photos with two colleagues and we suggest that it might have something to
do with plaiting. Maybe it would be worthwhile to look for some etnographic
analogies?

Best,
Kinga
