Is this bone or rock? Also is this a fish armor plate or anything else?
natwell19 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Ok, so I'm sure I annoyed many with my last "fish" post. But I am wondering if I found an armored head plate? I'm not going to argue this time... As it doesn't really get me anywhere and I really want to continue to get responses to my questions. I also found this of sorts and I don't know if the brown rocks are bone or just brown rocks. They do not appear to be chert, and they do have some holes in them but they may just be rocks. In middle Tennessee, where these were retrieved, we have driveways that look like this. And no, I did not lick them and I will not lick them ... Thanks!- 32 replies

Ohesaareaspis cephalaspid first identification in erratics of Lithuania
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello Dear, In the 14th September 2017 I found this armor plate from agnathan and found out that it belongs to Ohesaareaspis, the cephalaspid ostracoderm from Late Pridolian Ohesaaare stage, end of Silurian. I found it it Varena town, South Lithuania, it was in dolomite erratic. Its length is 1,3 cm and it has very interesting surface texture of tubercles. The genus was not identified in Lithuanian (Southern Baltic region) erratics till now, please vote if you are interested. Regards Domas- 4 replies
