Got this in a lot from a seller in Florida. Is this a horse tooth?

Dear Fossil Forum, We have continued to visit the Brazos near Houston, and it has turned up horse. Teeth, a proximal phalange, and what I think is actually not horse, but a tapir calcaneus! My latest find is a vertebra, and it looks like thoracic vertebra 18 (T18). But, in comparing it to a photo of a modern horse example, the facet for rib attachment is smaller in proportion, and lots of other details look a little different as well. Does anyone know of good resources for researching fossil horse ancestor vertebrae? Or know if there is variation in contemporary vert structure depending if mule, donkey, etc? I also do not have a good sense of scale. Photos attached. As always, thanks for looking

For those who are not versed in Calcaneum, this thread may help. http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/107376-mammal-calcaneum/ It was a great day in Florida.. I was out fossil hunting, and this bone dropped in my sieve. The site I was hunting tends toward Middle Miocene, about 90% marine. It is rare to find Pleistocene material, but there is always a mixture possibility. Let's figure this one out together. Look at the fossil below, size is 3.6 x 1.6 inches (91.4 x 40.6 mm), look at the thread above. Tell me what you think.

I was out hunting today with @minnbuckeye. He is visiting from Minnesota. It was warm, the sun was shining, we laughed a lot and found some really outstanding fossils... Here is Mike trying to turn a rock into a Meg. Neither of us found a meg on this day. GREAT SMILE. Last time I met with Mike was March 9th , 2018 , I found this.... I am beginning to think Mike is my good luck charm.. Many of you know that Pliocene horses are very high on my priority list. A couple of my finds from today.. Thanks , Mike

Well, this is modern, I don’t even have to do a burn test. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but I was hoping someone could help with an ID. I came across it when I was out on a hike through Little Death Hollow in southern Utah awhile back. I don’t have any other photos of it, which will probably make the ID more difficult. I’m thinking cow humerus, or maybe horse. Thoughts?

I found this land mammal tooth at Flag ponds on Calvert cliffs. It got me really excited when I found a mammal tooth, But I have no idea what it is. I was thinking Camel or horse because that is what it resembles. If anyone can help me get a positive ID on this that would be great!

I believe the long bone in these pictures is a horse (tibia). Correct - thoughts on the cut marks? Look modern?

All found on the beach in Jacksonville Beach FL like twenty years ago. Area known to produce Pleistocene mammals. 1. Thinking sloth phalanx. Note proximal epiphysis is missing/unfused. If it is sloth, does anyone known what kind? Is it medial? 2. Guess is bison first lower premolar 3. Equus sesamoids? Any help is appreciated.

This tooth for sale caught my eye and was hoping someone could help ID it. It was purportedly found in Miocene deposits of Arizona and I _think_ it's a late wear stage cheek tooth of Pliohippus sp. I do not have measurements at this time. Thanks for the help!

Hi TFF! I picked up a horse tooth recently that I believe is a Neohipparion eurystyle. It is 21mm x 20mm x 34mm and found somewhere in south Florida. Can anyone confirm for me? Thanks! @Shellseeker @Harry Pristis

Found approximately 5" below current soil level in central Kansas. Closest item to tooth was thumb scraper which was about 2" in length. Buffalo? Horse?
