Fossil horse molars found along the Mississippi River by Mr Lea during the mid 1970s. I donated these to the University of East Tennessee. During low water periods collectors and others find fossil bones on the numerous sand bars and small islands exposed during dry periods. They wash from desposits eroded along the river bank and end up exposed on sand bars. A wide range of Pleistocene fossils are found including mastodon, horse, bison, sloth, etc.
