Hi Freunde,
Viele Grüße aus der Schweiz.  Zusammen mit Thomas erhielten wir die Genehmigung an einer wirklich alten Schleuder zu forschen. Hier ein paar Eindrücke.

It was an exhausting day, but I really enjoyed working together with you.

Let's start solving this riddle!   It's going to be a tough one... Grin

Interesting. Are these leather pouches? What is the cordage made from? Any idea on how the cords were attached?

One. It's cut in half.

Will follow in due time. We first have to process things. It is assigned to Corcelettes and it's old. How old exactly I don't know at the moment.

No. It looks like plant fiber, species not determined as of now.

Not yet. The piece is fragmented.

Thearos, can you give a very brief background about it?

Teg, do you know what type plant material?

Die Schleuder stammt aus der Schweiz. Mittlere bis späte Bronzezeit.  Das Material wird mit Flachs , Leinen angegeben. Das ist aber nicht bestätigt.  Untersuchungen laufen noch. Sie ist wahrscheinlich älter als die Lahun Sling aus Ägypten. Sie galt bisher als verschollen . Es hat viele Jahre gedauert sie wieder zu finden. Smiley
