Unknown Tooth-Like Fossil

[huntin_fool]

This fossil was found in Yazoo County, Mississippi. It was in a clearwater creak surrounded by rocks when I found it. It looks like a long tooth, about the size of a grown man's thumb. It looks to be made of ivory too.

Hope someone can help me figure out what it is. I am going to take it the Mississippi museum of natural science when I get the chance.

Thanks for all your help.

Here is a link to the photos...

That is the tooth of an equus species, otherwise known as a horse.
