val horn Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 There was a post asking about bones found in the aurora museum fossil dig pits. Mostly I have found dolphin vertebrae, and assorted shark teeth and lots of unidentified bone fragments. I dont know what this is , it looks mostly complete and has some obvious muscle attatchment sites- I was thinking humerus but the broken surface has a flat articulating surface. Help will be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

val horn Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 the first two photos show where pieces are missing adjacent to the flat "articular surface" whatever the rest of the bone is I dont see missing pieces. This is why I thought it should be recognizable even as I dont understand what I am looking at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

val horn Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 I assume where I see smooth cortical bone i am seeing an intact surface . If that is wrong then there is nothing to id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
