Archaeologists have described a 'unique' find dating back thousands of years ago to Neolithic Europe. Researchers say it is just the second ring of its kind found in Denmark.
A Stone Age ring made of deer antler was discovered at a Neolithic site in Denmark that has been hidden for millennia, having been swallowed by the sea thousands of years ago.
Further testing identified the material—the bone of an elk or red deer —and suggested it came from the antler. The researchers noted some ambiguity, saying that it is not always possible to differentiate between the material of two such closely related species. It is not known why this type of jewelry is so uncommon in Denmark. One suggestion is that it is a matter of preservation and objects of this kind have not survived.
