Sharks of SC Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I found this bone yesterday. Its symetrical and very dense, so I assumed it was a fragment of a skull. Found on the Wando River, SC. Miocene. top - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspex Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 It does look like it could be a chunk o' noggin; beyond that, I'm no use.

hoffy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Looks like part of a dugon(manatte) skull cap. I've got one somewhere will try to find it tomorrow and compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
