[Bonetools] WBRG website updates January 2023

Fri Jan 6 17:36:35 CET 2023

Dear WBRG members,

the first new artefact this year is a shell artefact found by Burkhard Weishäupl from Innsbruck, Austria, on a flee market in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Nathalie Serrand, archaeo-malacologist at the Centre archéologique in Gourbeyre, Guadeloupe, kindly shared her expertise about these kind of artefacts:

The bone and shell artefact session planned at the 14th ICAZ conference in Cairns, Australia, already mentioned in the December updates, is entitled
Bone and Shell Fishhooks: A Close Up into Fishing Technology to Explore Knowledge, Tradition, Exchange, Migration and Beyond 
If you are interested in this session please get in touch with Carola Flores via carolaflowers at GMAIL.COM
More details, like the session abstract, can be found here:

I have added a new page for the workshop held by the Groupement de Recherche Europeen Exploitation des Matieres Osseuses dans l’Europe Prehistorique (GDRE Prehistos) in Targoviste, Romania, in November 2013. See here:

Hosting contract terminated
Sabine Deschler-Erb informed me in December that the Institut für Prähistorische und Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie (IPNA) in Basel will not be able to cover the hosting of the WBRG website anymore after the retirement of Jörg Schibler. The university has terminated the hosting contract, with Andi Jacomet’s company ah,ja! in Bern, Switzerland, the provider at which the website is hosted since its beginning in 2010. The hosting is covered by contract until the 31st of July 2024, but we will have to find a solution from August 2024 onwards. We can either leave the website at Andi Jacomet’s company and find new funding for the hosting contract or we can move the website to another provider. I got in touch with Andi yesterday and he will inform me about the costs soon. Personally, I would recommend to leave the website at its place for various reasons.

As once every year I have checked all links to bone workers and other websites related to bone artefacts given on the respective pages. Dead links have been removed:
https://www.wbrg.net/links/bone-workers/ <https://www.wbrg.net/links/bone-workers/>
https://www.wbrg.net/links/various-links/ <https://www.wbrg.net/links/various-links/>
If anybody is aware of worked bone related websites missing on these pages, please let me know.
