A question from an Italian colleague: Have you seen a similar object?
This object was found in a grave during the excavation (about 20 years ago by Soprintendenza Archeologica della Puglia) of a Late Antiquity (6th century AD) cemetery in the town of Taranto (south Italy).
The individual was an adult male with os acromiale on left scapula.
The measurements of the object, made from snake skin, are: 22mm x 28mm, and 7 mm of thickness.
Thank you in (...)

Muchas gracias! The photo link is great, and it helps to understand where this bone is located.
