Tommy gun 1978 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Found this in austin texas near a creek I think it is fossilized bone fragment possably from larger reptile would be my guess if so. Any input would be helpful so maybe I can go back and look for more pieces if this is what it is or something worth looking into Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Hunter Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I think it's another interesting piece of chert, Texas is full of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hi, What makes you think it’s a piece of fossilized bone from a great reptile? I don’t see any of that. Don't take your fossils in the hand to make your photos, it accentuates the blur of moving and the hands aren't a good indication of measurement, there are all sizes ! In addition to the origin and age of the terrain in which the fossils are found, size is also important for proper identification. I invite you to read my last link in my signature. If you don’t have a rule, print the document I made available and put your fossils on it before making your photos, making sure to leave a box with the apparent size (pedagogical message) Coco 1 ---------------------- OUTIL POUR MESURER VOS FOSSILES : ici Ma bibliothèque PDF 1 (Poissons et sélaciens récents & fossiles) : ici Ma bibliothèque PDF 2 (Animaux vivants - sans poissons ni sélaciens) : ici Mâchoires sélaciennes récentes : ici Hétérodontiques et sélaciens : ici Oeufs sélaciens récents : ici Otolithes de poissons récents ! ici Un Greg...

Ludwigia Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 The photos are not very sharp and somewhat blurred, but there's enough to see that this is just a rock of some sort. 3 Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
