GIVEN THE LARGE NUMBER OF LARGE ANIMALS IN AFRICA ITS SUPRIZING THERE ARE NOT MORE WEAPONS MADE FROM BONE.

NO DOUBT BEFORE METAL CAME ON THE SCENE BONE TOOLS AND WEAPONS WERE QUITE COMMON. JUST THINK OF THE CLUB ONE COULD FASHON FROM THE LEG BONE OF A GIRAFFE.

A NICE LOOKING CLUB THE PICTURES MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE AGE. IS IT NATURALY AGED OR HAS IT BEEN SMOKED AND THEN BURRIED IN THE GROUND

SHOULD BE ABLE TO TELL BY ITS SMELL.
