[Bonetools] WBRG website updates June 2019

[Hans Christian Küchelmann]

Dear Renáta,

I have to second Alice. It is definitely a piece of an antler tip. The engraving looks Scandinavian to me, which would fit to the dating, but there are better experts on stylistic issues in the list than me. 

Nice piece anyway. May I use it as bonetool of the month the other day?

Best

Christian
