texas fossil, looks like a shell


yearsago

Recommended Posts

just south of Austin TX. They dug this up at the graveyard this past week so i can't actually take it home (just wouldn't be classy). but i still wanted to know what it was. theres only really water fossils in the area so i assume some kind of shell.

That is a Rudist bivalve.  Nice intact piece.  Clean it up and you will have nice display piece.
