Johnson, Washington Post, April 23, 2024 A Dentist Found a Jawbone in a Floor Tile. Fossils are quite common in this type of stone, but human-looking ones are not. By Sarah Zhang, The Atlantic, April 2024 Found a mandible in the travertin floor at my parents house, Reddit My parents just got their home renovated with travertin stone.

Pic 1-2 look to me like a network of roots and I can see the pebbles there but it's a bit hard to make sense of the cavities which look somewhat artificial but then the rest doesn't look especially like something humans would make. Pic 3-4 look rather like some sort of seaweed... Any suggestions would be good!

Manavgat (Mediterranean coastal Turkey) - 36.7418835,31.66006184, altitude c. 200m On the path we walked up I spotted this. I've no idea what it really is but it made me think of a starfish/sea urchin type of creature though perhaps the features better fit some kind of flat sea-type creature? Cheers! Over to you all...

Hello. I need help from you, my expert friends, on something. I came across such rocks during my walk in Western Anatolia Turkey. I think it's a fossil. I searched the internet but couldn't find a definitive answer. Can you help me find which species this fossil belongs to? I am sharing the photos with you in attachment. Best regards.

Here's one of my really nice invert fossils. A little crab, almost perfectly preserved in a cave made of Travertine. Quality varies wildly with these, this isnt a super high quality one but ever since I saw one of these on an auction site I wanted one and this one was most affordable for me. Anyone else here own one of these? Lmk!

Any idea why these little bones are blue? (I know the look a little green here but in sunlight they’re much more blue.) Found a very remote place in Central Turkey.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone that celebrates! I’m thankful for a lot, but I wanted to let you all know that I’m thankful for you and this forum. For me, it’s a home away from home and you’re all like a family to me. So, I hope you all get to fill your bellies until they nearly explode…but make sure to leave room for pie!

Hi, I found this fossil in Turkey a few days ago. Its arrangement is like a mechanical object of our time. What do you think might happen?

I found this bone in Florida's Peace River in a gravel bed that contained Pleistocene and Holocene land vertebrates. I am unsure about this bone. Is it a small deer, or is it a turkey bone? Or, am I entirely wrong and it's an alligator? Thanks in advance! MikeG
