Concerning the toothbrush, there are several parallels in Douai
(France), found in modern contexts (18th-20th centuries), and
specially one really similar to the one of Wadi al-Shei. <br>
I send you the photograph (Douai, Ruelle de l'Evêque). I may
give you more informations if you want.<br>
All the best,<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"
style="text-align:left;direction:ltr;unicode-bidi:embed">Attached
are photographs of two bone (?) objects found by the
Carmelites in the 1980' at the site of Wadi al-Sheih (Haifa,
Israel). Dr. Edna Stern of the Israel Antiquities Authority is
preparing the publication. Most of the finds at the site are
from the Crusader and Mamluk periods (12<sup>th</sup>-16<sup>th</sup>
cen.), but these two seem to be more modern. One is a
cigarette holder or a
<i>nargillah</i> mouthpiece and the other, of course, a
toothbrush. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="text-align:left;direction:ltr;unicode-bidi:embed">Any
dating, parallels etc. would be welcomed. The photos are for
information only, until they are published.<o:p></o:p></p>
