Dear all,
 
Thank you for all your ideas. I thought it was a sternum, but we don't have this species in our collection. It is about 22 cm in length.
 
Best wishes,
 
Marloes

> A colleague's son has found this bone on the Dutch beach and he is very interested in what species this is. It is not in the zooarchaeological collection of the University of Amsterdam. Who can help?
