<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear Lizzie,</div><div> Some of the people on the bone tool list are NOT on the zooarchaeology page. So Make sure you send the e-mail to the bone tool list with images attached. We are a small group so attachments are not particularly bothering. All the pieces you showed look like bone (as opposed to ivory or antler). I have a feeling some of the pieces may actually be waste from manufacturing. The disk could easily be part of a more complex object. </div>

I don't expect to be able to identify the species, but perhaps someone with more experience of worked bone might be able to tell me what they are being worked into. I feel like the round one especially might be very recognisable to someone who has seen one before. </div>
