I also noticed you've changed your Avatar.....is that what you look like..after you've removed your 'previous' helmet

It could be a family urban legend. Maybe her father was joking, but he was a coal miner in West Virginia.

From the avatar you can now see why I was wearing sunglasses with the helmet!

It is actually the ball part of the leg / hip joint. Tibetan monk, possibly Nepalese. I showed it to my chiropracter, who confirmed that it was from a human being.

Hi Ben,

This does not indicate great age. Does the book consider this piece to be made in 1985 or earlier?

My continuiing thanks,
Bill
