I am looking to use a cave bear molar as the charm for a necklace; My thoughts were to insert a ring into the hollow of the root and attach it with epoxy glue. There is also a very small crack in the enamel, and I am looking to strengthen it all over. I would be grateful to hear any advice on this. Thanks

Hi everyone, I have not been on for a while, how is everyone? I have a very interesting find I want to show and hopefully figure out what it is. I was digging in my yard replacing a broken sprinkler. While I was digging, I found this. I’m attaching pictures. You see that black thing on the top? It almost looks like a tooth. It’s smooth, and it looks like it’s encased in some kind of stone. I confirmed it is not metal, as it is not magnetic. Do you think this is a tooth? If it is, it’s the first fossil I found in months. Location is Dietrich, Idaho. What do you guys think? If you need more photos, I will get them. Jared

Hey so I got a grab bag of Peace River teeth and this was by far the biggest. I thought bison at first but it seems too big and bulky, but I'm open to being wrong. Pics below.

It is possible identify the species of this tooth? Mammuthus primigenius, trogontherii or meridionalis? According to the seller, the tooth was discovered in Hungary, so what species of mammoth lived here? Woolly? Thanks.

Hi all, I have this little object. Just wondering if it stands out to anyone. Thanks all.

I found this molar in a south Texas gravel bar. Pretty sure it's equus since there's no isolated protocone (although there is a tiny pebble stuck right in the join, haha). I just noticed that it's a bit smaller than all my other equus teeth, and the pattern seems simpler. I looked through "Fossil Vertebrates of Florida" and couldn't quite make a match with either equus or pre equus examples. MSCH from root to parastyle: ~65mm APL length of crown enamel: 24 mm TRW width of crown from mesostyle to posterior protocone: 25mm. First pics are the tooth, then a couple of comparison pictures with an equus.

Had some productive hunting and found this in a gravel bar. I'm hoping I've found my first gomphothere or mastodon tooth! Or at least a part of one. I've looked at several threads about differentiating them, but I still had a hard time identifying this for certain. Am I headed in the right direction or could it be something else? It does look smaller than I would have expected. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Everyone! This came from the Peace River of Florida, I'm torn between Casteroides and Neochoerus. Measurements: 18 mm tall 13 mm wide 10 mm thick thoughts?

Hello fellow fossil enthusiasts, In the pictures included in this post it shows a molar I have found last summer. I found it within a bed of shells on a Dutch beach. I can’t remember the name of the beach, It however was rather close to Zandmotor, which is famous for its ice age mammal bones. I have shown this molar to a fossil buyer/seller and he has told me its possibly an unused molar of a woolly rhino. I thought I’d put it on here too however to see if anybody agrees. thanks for looking, AnyArthropod

Weather was cold and windy yesterday, but sunny and calmer down in southeast Texas. Sandy gravel matrix. I always hate to get my hopes up too early in the game, but I think I may have found my first 3 toed horse tooth. I looked at Hulbert's Fossil Vertebrates of Florida book. Photograph D on pg. 292 is a right m1 or m2 from nannippus aztecus. It appears pretty similar, but I'm not sure about size. Nannippus Aztecus would have been in Texas from late Miocene to Pliocene, so region would fit. And I think @garyc has found a nannippus on the Brazos before in this general region. My husband and I weren't able to take very good pictures of measurements of the occlusal surface without sacrificing accuracy. Gave up on trying to photograph it with the ruler and got better results. MSCH, from root to parastyle: 36mm APL, length of crown enamel: 18 mm TRW, width of crown from mesostyle to posterior protocone: 16mm. @Shellseeker @Harry Pristis @garyc

Un-erupted deer or elk or what? Found in southern Minnesota hillside creek bed. Deposits in the area are typically Holocene or Pleistocene

At first I thought it was petrified wood but it has some odd molar like shapes another side I've never seen before in a tree or in petrified wood. Found washed up on the beach at Matagorda Island, Texas, near the lighthouse. It feels very heavy for it's size like the density of petrified wood.

I found something new (to me) in differentiating the two most common (Hemiauchenia macrocephala and Palaeolama mirifica) Llama/Camels in the Florida fossil record and decided to share. One differentiating factors is the presense of crenulations (Palaeolama mirifica) or lack of crenulations (Hemiauchenia macrocephala) A couple of month back I found what I believed to be a Hemiauchenia macrocephala lower left m3 molar. Note the relatively narrow enamel height. Lots of root, less enamel than I expected. Bother by this difference in enamel height, I wondered if this was a old senile tooth worn down to the roots; I started to wonder of it might be a lower p3 rather than an m3, I wondered if it might be an upper M3... Then I came across a very extensive description of Hemiauchenia macrocephala on the website for the University of Florida Museum of Natural History and found this Hemiauchenia macrocephala lower left m3. and this caption.. So that is the identification tip for Florida fossil hunters who like me did not know that on some Hemiauchenia macrocephala teeth there is a layer of cementum covering some of the enamel making it look shorter, and that same effect can not occur on Palaeolama mirifica molars.

Hello all. I have a few fossils for you guys to take a look at. Hope it’s ok if I stick all 4 of them in one topic. My father pulled these out of the wall or side of a 50 m/164 ft deep lake on one of his diving expeditions, Vinkeveense Plassen in the Netherlands. The lake where these were found was formed when a layer of peat/turf was removed to be used as fuel, below it was a vast layer of sand which was dredged up to a depth of about 50 meters m / 164 ft. The fossils themselves were found at depths of 30 m / 98 ft to 40 m / 131 ft. As my dad told it to me, they were basically sticking out of the peat wall that formed the edge of the lake and he just plucked them out. Considering how deep these were buried, I suppose they could have been deposited somewhere during the last ice age. I photographed these over a year ago and totally forgot to put ‘m up here back then. Unfortunately I also forgot to put a ruler next to them for scale, but if needed for identification I can still do that. Very curious to see what you guys make of these.

Hi everyone! I recently got some Florida Pleistocene fossils and I'm having some trouble identifying them. I think the first is a wolf molar and the third is either a turtle or alligator claw but beyond that I'm stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am considering buying this stegodon jaw section. I am looking for a good one for quiet some time now. Came across this one, has one little repair (marked) but i don't know about the rest

This tooth is from the White River formation. I am sorting my collection and want to confirm my best guess. If possible, I would like to know the species.

Hello! one of my coworkers brought in this fossil since they knew I was interested in that sorta thing and when I first saw it my mind went to coral but they said it was from California and was told it was a Mammoth molar, so I had to change my theory. While I know it is not a Mammoth molar it definitely has a tooth like structure, and in my opinion, could look like a heavily worn down Mastodon molar but I wanted someone who is an expert in this field/ knows more information than me to help with the identification. I didn't get to measure it exactly but my rough estimate was around 13cm

This would be my first Mammoth Molar I'm preparing again in 10 years. My first one was a 10lb Mammoth molar. This one is quite small of course since it's from a calf. It has been laying in right water for 1,5 months and at the moment I'm glueing the last 4 pieces since it's precision work with this small piece. I'm really glad I picked up on this one (Found in Maasvlakte, Netherlands). I found it in pretty poor condition you guys can see in the pictures. But I have never seen this molar, so I'm amazed anyways! I will show you guys the full picture when it is all done! If anyone has tips too for my next prepairs, I will take any advice and tips!

Out walking near Denver CO today and stumbled across what looks to be a large tooth. Can anyone help me understand what it might have come from?

This is a tooth fragment I'm thinking of buying, and it's advertised as gomphothere. But it also looks mastodon to me. Thoughts?
