Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of bone of unknown date. It is part of a long bone, judging from the size, from a cow or horse. With only part of the shaft remaining, it is not possible to be certain of the species. The thickness perhaps indicates a tibia. The bone is not fresh, so is likely to be archaeological, but cannot be dated without using scientific techniques. Since it was found on Marston Moor Battlefield, a date of 1644 is perhaps most likely.
