Description: | Old writing reads "3" on one side. Robenhausen, near Lake Pfäffikon, Switzerland MANU unknown This antler sleeve is a dark brown colour. It has a fairly shiny appearance, and so may have been varnished.
It is fairly regular in shape, being almost rectangular, with clean, sharp edges. It widens to be approx. 6cm in diameter at one end.
The sleeve has been hollowed out to make a socket, which extends almost the whole length of the sleeve.
An antler sleeve would have been used to attach a stone axe to 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 : PH_EUROPE : BECCA : RJONES01 : ANIMAL : | 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 |
