Samt Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I found this on a beach in Northeast Massachusetts. The area was volcanic at one point in time. This appears to be the head that was a little squashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Just a chert nodule, I'm afraid, not a fossil. 5 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpa Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hello Sam and a warm welcome to TFF from Austin, Tx. I'll have to agree with @Tidgy's Dad on the ID, but I can sure see why you thought it might be a fossilized head. As you continue on the forum, you will learn to ID what fossil bone looks like and what the fossilization of previous life actually looks like. Again, welcome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Yup. Suggestively shaped chert nodule. Sorry, not a fossil. Good material for arrowheads, though. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
