<DIV>Hi Alice,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>You're right to correct me.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Camel bone is a good addition to the list, but the weapons in which I'm
interested are primarily European in origin.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best,</DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Dear Joel,<BR> It just occurs to me
that sixteenth to nineteeth century yatagan swords from Turkey often <BR>had
bone hilts, some very likely made from camel bone as well. Antler and horn
should not <BR>be
conflated...<BR><BR>Best,<BR>Alice<BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Bonetools
