<div dir="ltr">Dear Francois,<div> Christian use this pair of Late Bronze Age skates from Törökbalint, near Budapest in Hungary for decoration on the WBRG page. They are indeed skates and a characteristic of this period in the western part of Hungary at least. They were produced on a metatarsal from some kind of an equid - possibly even donkey because they are very small. They were found in a pit along with what might be a sled runner made from a worked red deer metatarsal. </div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Alice</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Thu, Sep 20, 2018 at 1:53 PM François POPLIN <<a href="mailto:francois.poplin@mnhn.fr">francois.poplin@mnhn.fr</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">How is the opposite side of that metapodial, flat and smoothed ?

Objet: [Bonetools] Updates WBRG website<br>
<br>
Dear worked bone people,<br>
<br>
the ICAZ Ankara conference just finished and included two sessions related to worked bone, which means there are some related updates on the WBRG website.<br>
<br>
There is a new page for the ICAZ 2018 Ankara session, which contains the full programme of the sessions at<br>
<a href="https://www.wbrg.net/meetings/icaz-2018-ankara/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wbrg.net/meetings/icaz-2018-ankara/</a> <br>
<br>
This months bonetool has been updated rather late due to too much work on the conference and is also related to Turkey. These are two beautiful anthropomorphic bone pins from Bronze Age Dündartepe in Turkey presented on a poster by Gamze Durdu in the WBRG session at Ankara.<br>

<br>
A link to the 1st version of Aline Averbouhs "Multilingual lexicon of bone industries" is now available on the start page and on the „News“ page (<a href="https://www.wbrg.net/news/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wbrg.net/news/</a>).<br>
<br>
On the Working Group Meeting we agreed to add a new page to the website showing images of typical objects and intermediate stages of chaines operatoire, which can then be used as a reference e.g. for archaeologists or zooarchaeologists. The page will be set-up and maintained by Jennifer Hull (Australian National University) and Aleksa K. Alaica (University of Toronto).<br>
<br>
Best wishes.<br>
<br>
Christian<br>
