Picture in Schumacher 2004: Taf. 3,3 (drawing = LIR).
Length 2.5 cm. Only slightly scratched, but well visible. Non-script, possibly even just one symbol (the inner hastea of the chevrons almost touch the central vertical, while the verticals left and right are standing slightly apart). See here for a discussion of possible interpretations of inscriptions with doubtful status. Note that on the inscribed bones from the Ganglegg, the inscriptions with linguistic content are always inscribed on the right-hand side, while the non-inscriptions (cp. VN-5.1 / VN-6, and VN-19) are put in the centre.
