aplomado Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I found this bone sieving in a creek in central Alabama. There are Cretaceous fossils in the stream (Mooreville Chalk). The scale is in centimeters. It is about 1 cm long. The first three pictures are 10x, the remaining ones are 30x. It was intact when I got it. Unfortunately one end broke and I glued it back together, as you can see. Any idea if it may be fossil or not? Any idea what sort of creature or body part it may be from? I am very curious...

JohnJ Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Have you compared with raccoon or opossum phalanges? 1 The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplomado Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 I haven't found an example of those phalanges! Anyone have one? It could be a phalange, I did not think of that. Is there any want to tell if it is fossil or not? Should I post this in the main fossil ID forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
