Hi Rafael
I have no idea of what animal it comes from, but I would look at the possibility of it being part of a sternum. If not that, then part of a hyoid bone.
Is the bone somewhat eroded? That can frequently happen in bone that is not densely calcified.
Cheers,
Richard

Dear zooarchers... we have a new mystery bone, axial or cranial bone
maybe (?)... It´s come from central Spain in one Bronze Age site:
