Description: | Robenhausen, near Lake Pfäffikon, Switzerland MANU unknown This antler sleeve is a pale-brown to cream colour on one side, and a darker, seemingly more polished brown on the other.
It is hollowed out at both ends; at one end, to create a smallish round socket, and at the other, a larger, more oval shaped socket.
Antler sleeves were used as a means of attaching stone axes onto a wooden handle. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | BONE_EUROPE : ANIMAL : BECCA : RJONES01 : PH_EUROPE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
