Two astragali, one from an Equus sp. horse, the other from a Pleistocene tapir, Tapirus veroensis. Distal view for comparison.

Very nice! :D Are they from Florida?

Thank you. Yes, these are from rivers in Northcentral Florida. These are fairly common finds because they are dense and poorly vascularized bone, thus they preserve well.
