I found it on a south west cliff/beach and it has a odd internal spine like thing. Any ideas? I’m quite bad at IDs as well, so any clues about it ? Please help. Here’s some photos hope this helps. Thanks for your time. God fossils still fry my brain, just thinking how old, and it’s trip to get into my hand still makes me go woah! Last 2 phots show the spine like thing quite well

This weekend while near La Plata Missouri, I was looking through a pile of rocks brought in for the driveway and I found some interesting things (at least they are to me!). But I am not sure what I am looking at, or it it is simply nothing at all. So I am wondering if anyone would be able to shed some light on what I found? If they do turn out to be something I have a few more photos to show, thank you!

Hello forum, I hope this is OK to post here. I haven't been on the forum much for the last couple years, since I started graduate studies in archaeology, but I have a mystery I think the FF is uniquely qualified to solve. At the Burke Museum at the University of Washington (Seattle, USA), in the collections is a Yup'ik pouch that is covered with a very small bone (4mm x 1-2mm) used as a form of decoration. The bag originates from SW Alaska. The elements appear to be bones, but maybe shells or teeth. Some extremely knowledgeable individuals have been stumped by this so we're trying a little crowdsourcing. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I've attached one photo of the elements, but there are a bunch here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/yJdKozUxGd2uNmar1 Thanks for your help! Dave
