Fossils collected by Mr. Lea of Memphis along the Mississippi River during low water periods during the mid 1970s. After his death in 2013 my brother obtained these fossils and I donated them to the University of East Tennessee.

They include a bear mandible, bison metatarsal, couple of pieces of mastodon bone plus various other Pleistocene era bone fragments. Some of these were probably found at the Richardson's Landing Pleistocene site on the Mississippi River Tipton County, TN.
