Found this cool complete little bone while screening some gravel in a Summerville creek. Seems familiar but not enough to hazard a guess. Thanks for looking! -

The Mako tooth design hasn't changed much in ~ 30 million years. The left tooth is the modern species I. oxyrinchus, the right one is I. desori (from Charleston, SC, 2 1/8" slant, Oligocene). Some would say that I. desori is the same as the modern species. -
I have so many frags that can't be identified beyond Otodus sp. because they are missing the corners where a cusp would be. At this stage, I just want to find an identifiable meg, even if it's a frag. I'm not even asking for a whole one (yet)...I don't feel like that's asking too much. Anyway, I found this one today and it is broken and worn, but I don't see a cusp. There is a chip, but not a cusp. Can this be identified or is it still just an indeterminate Otodus sp.? I am including a picture of it with a (worn) angustidens that I found today also, just to show the difference.

Hi everyone, fellow Charlestonian here. I've recently got back into shark teeth hunting and have been to a few locations such as behind the YMCA and in those creek branches round there. I am posting here to ask everyone if they have any good locations they would share. I know this community is tight lipped and secretive when it comes to this, but I was hoping there would be a few individuals who didn't mind helping someone actually find some good finds. I get most sites are on private property or the individual has connections to get onto quarries (i.e. Black River Fossils), but I know there a

Hi everyone, this believed to be "tooth/bone" was found in the Dorchester Creek / Ridgeville area.

Hi everyone, need help with some identification here. The first photos of the brown looking tooth was found in Edisto, while the bone you see was found in Dorchester Creek in Summerville.

Understanding the Formations of Charleston and Dorchester Counties, SC
cthamon posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Okay, I posted this yesterday and I’m not sure if it was that it was too long winded, in the wrong spot, or both. So, I will attempt to boil it down. There was a post on this topic in 2011 but I feel like there’s certainly more knowledge on this now. 1. What formations are megalodon teeth coming from? The plausible ones are the Parachucla (22ma), Marks Head (18ma), and Goose Creek Lime (3.5ma), all within the umbrella Hawthorn formation. The CofC Museum lists almost every specimen as coming from the Goose Creek Lime, yet the hottest spots at best have the Raysor formati- 3 replies
