Full Description

New record created 11/06/2007 replacing MSF09276 which was deleted by computer failure.
Large bone point/awl type implement, 126mm long, with drilled perforation at butt end. Drawing in parish file. Found by the late (see 'Not to be published on web' tab for finder/s and/or findspot/s), some years prior to 1983 (S1).
May 2007: findspot marked on map ((see 'Not to be published on web' tab for finder/s and/or findspot/s). Said to have been at approximately same spot as a second, similar bone point MNL 518 (though the original cited findspot for this is recorded much further to the west in the same field and is therefore kept as a separate site number)(S2).

Formerly recorded as MNL MISC
