Together with my colleague Gerlando Vita I'm working on late Paleolithic sediments from San Teodoro cave (NE Sicily). There we found a mystery, small bone. In places (see the withish side in fig. A or at the top of the small,drilled protuberance as in figs B-D) it seems worn out as it was polished.

We interpreted it as a possible sesamoid bone but we are not at all sure!

So what is it? To which animal it could belong?

Hope that someone will help us!
