Bos or red deer part of antler

Recommended Posts

Hello to all!

I was lucky today to find this! 

It's some type of horn but I'm not sure from which animal is.It is archeological find.I found many Bos taurus primigenius and Cervus elaphus bones so I'm thinking that this may belong to them.If u know better let me know :D

Hvala!

I can't quite get a vibe for either horn core or antler...

What is the porosity of the other end?

I would go with Bos horn core on this.

Bison is just one member of the Family BOVIDAE, and one of which I have some images.  Think of my guess as bovid rather than cervid.
