paleogirly Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Hi all, I'm a newbie to the forum and fossils in general, so need all the help I can get! Found this on the coast in the UK today. It appears to be the fossilised end of a limb bone. It's heavy, nearly a 1lb, and is as hard as rock. It's 4.5 inches long (11.5cm) and 2.5 inch widest. Any help from the keen fossil minds on this forum would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorne Ledger Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Looks like a heavily worn end of a tibia or even a femur of some large beast. I am not seeing enough diagnostic features to even guess at the genus. Something in the big horse/camel range though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
