Commentary

First published in Franz 1959: 229 (A 2). Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Pictures in Franz 1959: Taf. 3,8 (drawing), IR (drawing = LIR) and LIR (photo).

Length 1.4 cm. Engraved into the tip of the tusk; a small piece broken off, damaging the middle section. Most probably purely ornamental (cp. SZ-85).
