That night came the idea of checking both sides to see whether there is
a correspondance in "rythm" of the holes. Can you tell me if the end on
the left is the same on both figures : has the bone fragment inbetween
been rolled around its long axis, or turned "end for end" ?<br>
<br>
Do you agree that one can see through on view 2, at 8,5 cm, as I
previously wrote ?<br>
<br>
For the question "femur", it happened to me to have to correct the
determination of such a tube shaped fragment which was described as
part of a human femur from Magdalenian time at Abri Pataud (it was
reindeer) :<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi. Colleagues have found a human bone from Tel
es-Safi,
area F, in Israel, dated to the Ottoman period (most probably). It
has some holes that look as if they were drilled from the inside of the
bone's
cortex. They were not drilled from the outer face since complete
diameters are
visible only from inside. Therefore, it seems they were probably made
by
some sort of insect. they are not from roots or human drilling. Has
anyone ever
see such holes or know what made them?<o:p></o:p></p>
