<p>[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 341028, member: 2844"]I always heard they used cow bones from soup and other food. Any materials they could find. I doubt those prisoners of war had access to something as exotic as water buffalo bone. There wasn't much food as it was, and many prisoners died of malnutrition and disease. Selling their crafts gave them some income to buy food and whatever else they needed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
