Hello Group! 

 

Its been a hot minute since I have posted, but here is goes...

 

Fossil tusk/tooth fragment

Found in the Cakipundung river in Indonesia 

 

I purchased a group of fossil tusk fragments and this was in with them. I have never seen the hole and channel before. Can someone help with the purpose of it and possibly an ID as well

That must be from near the root. The hole would be the root canal. The shape must be worn then stained. 

 

That would make sense, it was a river find so erosion would be a factor f
