Caallison Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I found this chunk of bone while excavating the pile of overburden where i originally found the contact end of a large shoulder blade. This sight has also yielded a vertebrae that i will post in the comments. I am, as usual, stumped at trying to identify what kind of bone this used to be. My mom says it reminders her of the wings of a pelvic bone. unfortunately there are not a lot of great pictures of the pelvic bones of large mammals on the internet. What do you all think?

MrBones Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I am a rookie, but to me it kind of looks like a scapula bone, possibly from a bison, or similar animal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I agree that looks like to be a piece of scapula. 1 "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

Caallison Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Do we have an idea which end it is? when i first found it I thought that it might be the (end) of the scapula, they didn't fit together but I am more than likely missing connecting pieces.
