Objet: [Bonetools] smoothed horse radius 

Dear all, 

during the study of an Iron Age fauna in Bressanone (Bolzano, Italy) for my PhD research I found a proximal of horse radius (which I am attaching in two photos with different angles so that I can better appreciate its characteristics) with a smooth back face, shiny to the touch and view. 
There are some traces of processing on the sides, while the smoothed back has light and rare scratches horizontally. 

>From the bibliography that I have read and which was also indicated to me by Mr. Küchelmann, whom I thank again, would seem to be a skate/sledge runner. 

if you agree with this opinion, is anyone aware of the findings of skates/sledges in the Alps dating back to the Iron Age-Latène period? 
>From what I have found there would be a horse metatarsal from Prellenkirchen, Leitha-Marsch, Austria, dated to the late Latène but I do not think it has been published yet. 

Thank you all! 
Silvia Eccher
