I cannot recall anything similar from the Lake Dwelling sites of the Swiss Alpine Foreland either. There are little mustilid mandibles clearly used as amulets from the Neolithic These are very interesting objects. I will be curious to see where and even if parallels pop up.

Instead of horn items from waterlogged sites (although those would be interesting as well), I'm looking for instances of recorded horn-working waste - namely clusters of bovid horn cores with or without frontal bones.
