As Luck Would Have It On A Sea Wall Dredge Pile

A friend and I were recently taking care of his parents home while they were gone, when we noticed a new dredge pile from a sea wall being constructed on a nearby canal. On a whim, we stopped to look around. Almost immediately my friend found the jaw, posted below. And after just a bit more digging, I found the large bones. After revisiting the site over a month, we pulled out lots of turtle pieces, joints, a mammoth tooth fragment, some vertebrae, a deer antler, what looks like a cut bone, and a single tooth, my friend believes belongs to the jaw. I'd love to have comments about this cache...it was found in the northwest corner of Cape Coral, FL, and is most likely pleistocene. Thanks. post-16553-0-23153700-1440804647_thumb.jpg
