Publication Year :

Abstract

Pin appears to be made of bone and has been carved in the shape of an alligator, with snout, four legs, and an elongated pointed tail forming the primary part of the pin. A criss-cross pattern has been carved into the top to resemble scales, and two black dots have been painted on to resemble eyes. This may have been intended to function as a type of hair pin or tie pin.
