Tousa Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Hi, i was hiking in Israel some weeks ago in the dessert and stumbled upon this fossil tooth, anyone know from what animal or species this might be from? Height 4cm width 2cm As you can see it is not sharp at all, very smooth with lines from top to bottom Thanks Edited April 15, 2020 by Tousa more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnbuckeye Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Could it be a worn down rugosa like coral instead of a tooth? Picture from picuki.com Mike 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
