EroHed Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Is this a Cows Tooth? If so, what part, and is it old or modern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Pristis Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 It's a bovid m3, severely worn. Though the crenulations in the enamel suggest bison, the tooth seems small for bison. No easy way to determine age -- best is to rely on the context of the find. 2 http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EroHed Posted April 21, 2023 Author Share Posted April 21, 2023 I found this in an area of creek in SW, MS. Can anyone identify what beast it belongs to, say cow, horse, bison, etc? Thanks in return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 @EroHed you posted this tooth on Sunday. I've merged that topic with this one. The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
