Context (Amendments / updates)
There is conflicting information on the two catalogue cards for Z 32475. One states there are 4 picks, the other has been amended at some point to states there are 5. One of these picks may be the pick now identified as Z 31241 (marked with this idno and again with Z 32475). This might suggest there really are only four as one catalogue card suggests. On sight of only three picks marked with, and only, the idno Z 32475 it is not yet clear.

Context (Amendments / updates)
There are two entries for Z 32475 in the Accession Register Z5.
Entry one: This has been crossed out. It originally reads '4 antler picks... Norfolk, Weeting, Grimes Graves... Neo' in the same hand as one of the catalogue cards.
Entry two: This has been left blank under description. The only information that has been noted is for a different provenance and source: '[Fox Collection].. [Suffolk, Culford].. [Neo]'.
It is possible that there were originally two groups of objects from different places assigned the same idno. This appears to have occurred with Z 32476, see records for for individual information and the same accession register.
