Mammoth Tooth Purchase

Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

I recently purchased this mammoth tooth, which I believe is genuine but would like your guys’ feedback on. I’m not as familiar with mammoth material, but I’m not so sure it’s a wooly mammoth based on pictures I’ve seen online. I believe it may be a lower left P4(?) but not really sure.  The seller noted:

 

No restoration

AGE :Pleistocene - 12,000 years ago                                                                            
Length: 10.5cm / 4.1 inch                                                                          
Height: 12cm / 4.7 inch                                                                        
Width:  7.5 cm / 2.9 inch                                                                         
Weight: 583gram/ 1.28 ibs                                                                                      
Origin: The Sakha(Yakutia)Republic Siberian

 

Any input would be lovely! Can we roughly tell a species based on its supposed provenience and morphologies? Also included a photo of a temporary DIY stand I made from 1/8” steel rod and heat shrink tubing.

I think I changed it enough. Just don't want direct copy/paste exact verbiage. ;)
