Paleontology Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Hi All, I recently went digging in Arcadia in the more shallow areas of Peace River. The pickings weren't bad, I assume from the recent high water. There's a few pieces that I have found that I wanted your thoughts on identification. This first piece reminded me of a fragment of mastodon tooth. I was thinking this MAY be a ground sloth tooth based on its shape. Not too sure on that, but wanted your ID. And last was this piece. The shape reminds me of a partial vertebra, but it is incredibly flat. Thanks for your help in ID'ing these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lissa318 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Your pictures are a bit dark and shadowed which makes IDing difficult. The last two I would guess at being turtle shell from what I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Roman Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 About the last piece, I find a lot of megafauna vertebra fragments and none look like your finding. It strongly reminds me of a hip bone fragment or some other flat bone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
