[Hans Christian Küchelmann]

Dear WBRG members,

this month’s bonetool is a strange Middle Bronze Age whale bone artefact of yet unknown purpose, found in the coastal region of The Netherlands:

Joris Brattinga (J.Brattinga at archol.nl <mailto:J.Brattinga at archol.nl>) would be grateful for suggestions of its function and comparative items. As always, please do not forget to CC the BONETOOLS list if you answer Joris’ request.
