<div style="word-wrap:break-word;">Dear Selena,<br clear="none"><br clear="none">the website you found is Astrid Dingeldey’s homepage. Astrid dyed bones brown with walnut shells (Juglans regia), dark red with roots of rose madder (Rubia tinctorum), orange with onion skin (Allium cepa) and turquoise with copper rust. You can see the results of the brown and turquoise dying here:
<div><a rel="noopener noreferrer" shape="rect" target="_blank" href="https://knochenarbeit-shop.de/produkt/spielstein/">https://knochenarbeit-shop.de/produkt/spielstein/</a> (click on the options on the right to see the different colours).</div>
<div>I do not know the details of the recipe though, but you can contact Astrid via <a rel="noopener noreferrer" shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:astrid.dingeldey@ars-asta.de" target="_blank" href="mailto:astrid.dingeldey@ars-asta.de">astrid.dingeldey@ars-asta.de</a>. Her article (Jung & Dingeldey 2013) has already mentioned by others.</div>
<div><br clear="none"></div>
<div>Cordula Gostencnik (2014) published an article about Roman bone dying. See also the bonetool of the month form May 2017 (<a rel="noopener noreferrer" shape="rect" target="_blank" href="https://www.wbrg.net/bonetool-of-the-month-archives/bonetool-archives-2017/">https://www.wbrg.net/bonetool-of-the-month-archives/bonetool-archives-2017/</a>). Striebel (2003) published a paper about early modern recipes. There is quite an amount of information about bone dying in Andés (1925) and possibly in Schmidt (1891). There is also a medieval text by a monk, whose name I do not recall completely (something with Theo…).</div>
