Commentary

Based on the importance of keys in ancient religion Nothdurfter explains in succession of Gleirscher 1986 and Marzatico 1996 the connection of keys and votive offerings of antler, formerly well-known as Hirschhornvotive. On the one hand there are the true key grips (cp. list 2 where listed e.g. WE-3 handle as well as FI-1 antler), on the other hand the tall group of antler votives with inscriptions and/or characters which must be interpreted as imitations of keys (cp. 3, i.a. the whole group of antlers found in Magrè). As such imitations they were utilized as votives in place of keys. Cp. Nothdurfter 2002: 1131.
