Bronze Age red deer antler
These two antlers are still attached to the deer cranium. Only the upper part of the cranium remains. Both tines are snapped part of the way up the beam. They are not symmetrical. One has just a crown tine while the other has both a crown and bez tine. The pattern of breaking suggests they may have been used as picks or rakes, however their surfaces are too heavily eroded to show any signs of use.
