Tooth... Or Ordinary Flint Stone?

Recommended Posts

I suspect this is just an ordinary bit of flint but I wanted to ask you all for your opinion just in case.

 

I found it amongst gravel on the garden path outside my home in Scotland. The the width of the widest end is 1.4 cm, the thinnest is 0.9 cm and the full length is 3.1 cm.

Suggestively shaped flint nodule. 

Teeth would have enamel, and possibly root structure and texture. 

No enamel here, no root texture/structure.
