I discovered this in some open space near my neighborhood. They appear to be bone but not sure what type? The open space where the fossils were found was formed during the Arapahoe formation.

Happy Saturday, all! I'm helping a woman to photograph her brother's fossil collection. Everything was collected prior to 1967, after which he left the country. He's still living, but not easy to get a hold of. All of these items have been sitting in storage since then. I understand most of these may not be able to be identified. It's well outside of my wheelhouse, and I imagine many on here may be more familiar with material form the Morrison Formation. I'm going to add one or two per post to make it easy to differentiate. I'm most curious about the first piece which appears to be section of a jaw. If any additional photos are needed, please let me know. Thank you in advance! Label on storage boxes Some labels were included, but they were all jumbled. Fragments from the envelope.

I saw this fossil for sale in Colorado labeled as a Archaeopteryx (second picture) by it it looks nothing like an Archaeopteryx. I google image searched the picture and the only look alike was on a website for Japanese travel photos (first picture) and I believe it was at a dinosaur museum in Japan. I'll put both pictures below! Please help me identify
