<div>I agree with Sonia - it is certainly antler tine and it may well be the beginnings of a grip for some kind of a tool that was never finished because the material failed.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Dear Bonetoolers,
<div><br></div>
<div>any idea what this is? Is it a worked antler tine? What could have it been used for? Unfortunately, I don't have the date for it, but it could be medieval.. It was found in northeaster Croatia (Baranya).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Best regards,</div>
