Dear Etan,<br>
<br>
I scanned a page from book:<br>
Van Vilsteren, V. T. 1987. Het Benen Tijdperk. Gebruiksvoorwerpen van been, gewei, hoorn en ivoor 10.000 jaar geleden tot heden. Drents Museum, Assen.<br>
There is baby-comforter on the fig 88.<br>
Sorry about quality - I do not have a book, but only a copy.<br>
<br>
Best wishes, <br>
Heidi<br>
<br>

Thanks, Marloes. You are right about the large ring, of course, but what about the small rings?<br>

Yes, these are all parts of a baby's comforter/pacifier!<br>
<br>
Found in Amsterdam dated to the 19th/20th century (with the rubber parts which are missing here)<br>

Subject: [Bonetools] bone objects<br>
Dear all,<br>
Here are some bone rings found in Jaffa, Israel by the Israel Antiquities Authority in a context of – probably – the beginning of the 20<sup>th</sup> century. In that time Palestine was already rather modernized, especially a port city like Jaffa. The objects
could have been imported, mainly the large ring.<br>
Does anyone have any idea about the use of these rings, any parallels?<br>
Etan<br>
<br>
