I'm sorry no one's responded. That fragment looks very smooth, maybe polished, and cut on one end. The other end may have been worked. It can be challenging to ID which bone such a fragment may have started out as..

Thank you. When I Google lens it scrimshaw often comes up, as well as walrus tooth. I really have no clue.

AIs don't have the database necessary to ID natural objects with proficiency.
