[Bonetools] WBRG website updates May 2021

[Hans Christian Küchelmann]

Dear WBRG members,

this months bonetool is a beautifully decorated mystery object found in Nothumberland, which has been sent to the mailing list by David Constantine in 2015.

The group of supporters for the WBRG website is growing. Last month Pam Crabtree and Douglas Campana of the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, New York University, USA, kindly agreed to support the website. Also Marianne Christensen and her lab Équipe ethnologie préhistorique at the Université de Paris 1, Panthéon-Sorbonne agreed to contribute a share to the costs for the maintenance of the website. This is highly appreciated and I would like to thank you all in the name of the WBRG and of course also personally, since part of the costs will cover my working hours. All institutions and individuals are now acknowledged on the WBRG website at

The institute logos logos are also given on the main page (https://www.wbrg.net/ <https://www.wbrg.net/>), linked to the respective institutes.
