Bonjour<br>
C'est probablement la moitié d'un manche de couteau. Dans la rainure
à l'intérieur de l'objet était fixé le gond (?) en fer du couteau.
C'est pourquoi la couleur rouge. Le même objet a été trouvé à
Augusta Raurica (S. Deschler-Erb, Römische Beinartefakte aus Augusta
Raurica. Augst 1998, p.359, Tafel 7, objet no.91).<br>
<br>
Bonne journée<br>

I am studying the bone and ivory artefacts of a Roman villa found
in the south of France. Through the usual bone pins and beads,
there is one object for which I can't find any similar item. It is
a small, almost rectangular piece that is broken on the length
along the central perforation, made by a drill. The artefact may
have had a square section originally. The only external face
entirely preserved shows parallel lines engraved in the length
sense. One of the short faces is concave, the other is shorter and
flat. The concave and the long perforation are red; nothing in the
context could explain the colouring. <br>
<br>
Does anyone have any idea ? <br>
<br>
Thank you very much in advance, <br>
and wishing to all of you the best for the new year, <br>
<br>
