Found in north Fort Hood near Gatesville, TX next to the Leon River.
Unsure of formation. *would love to know if anyone has that info*
Resembles a fish tooth to me, but this one is MUCH larger than any I've ever found (in eastern NC where I live), plus this one seems to have a root attached. It's approximately 3.5cm standing tall, and the "root" is approximately 3cm at its widest point.
Quarter is for size reference.
I googled some globidens images (as someone suggested) but I have not seen any that precisely match my specimen.
For instance, mine does not have any indication of a point or tip. The "enamel" is also completely smooth, and lacks any evidence of striations which were evident in the googled images. It could be, of course, that maybe my specimen is just extremely worn.
Any input is much appreciated!
