joa.13253.pdf The endocranium and trophic ecology of Velociraptor mongoliensis J. Logan King Justin S. Sipla Justin A. Georgi Amy M. Balanoff James M. Neenan DOI: 10.1111/joa.13253 " In life, the endosseous cochlear duct of V. mongoliensis wouldhave housed the basilar papilla—the auditory organ of tetrapods(Gleich et al., 2005; Walsh et al., 2009). As the length of the cochlear duct has been interpreted as a rough measurement of the basilar papilla, the length of the duct can be used as an estimator of hearing frequencies in non-avian dinosaurs (Witmer and Rid

This was found by my wife, very heavy, it is fossilized bone but looks like there are air pockets on the inside? I read that mastodon skulls have air pockets, possibly also bison?

Hi, everyone! Got a strange one for you and would appreciate any helpful advice! Found in a cave in Scotland. Would have normally considered it a cranial fragment due to the rough texture on the flat side, but the strange, raised honeycomb/chain pattern on the other side is throwing me off. Not necessarily versed in fossils so figured this would be the place to go just to check for that. Photo is a bit misleading, btw - it’s a dark brown colour. Sorry for the lack of photo scale, used a 1p coin which was all I had on me.
