I do not have a pdf of the chapter (must make one ...). What I do have is an article in press by Fay Worley and myself which covers the same topic but expands it beyond the Stonehenge assemblage. I can send a copy of the text and figures to anyone who would like a copy. Please let me know.<br>

Fire blackening of antler to assist in removing the tines has been suggested on a number occasions<br>
in England, mainly for neolithic material. The illustrations here are not very good (my apologies<br>
!) but they show an antler from a neolithic context, recovered from an important site at<br>
Trumpington in Cambridgeshire, which has been fire blackened around the junction with the trez<br>
tine, and also along the beam. The suggestion is that localised charring of antler, undertaken<br>
probably with a wooden brand, was commonly used as a working technique at this time (Clutton-Brock<br>
1984, 26; Serjeantson and Gardiner 1995, 420-1). It made the antler more brittle and easier to<br>
separate. The same technique can also be seen on some Neolithic bone objects (Senepart 1985,<br>
39).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
These are old studies of course but they might be useful. Trumpington will be published in a few<br>
years time.<br>
