Needle-case
A needle-case is made of a narrow tubular bone of a mammal. It is planned and polished. The item has a polygonal shape. The cross section is close to a pentagon. The ornament is geometrical, asymmetrical on the sides. The number of cut lines in a strip is from 3 to 5. The angle of inclination on the plane is not maintained. The pattern in the area of the wider mouth begins with a "spruce" ornament which on one side turns into a zigzag, and on the other - at first it is limited to a low-inclined group, and then three groups of oblique lines go down at regular intervals.
One side edge has two groups of lines coinciding with the beginning and end of the main ornamental sides. The opposite side edge is not ornamented.
