ynot Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Sorry, but I can not see anything in this rock. Maybe pictures from other angles would help. Tony Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

trisk Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 The shape is certainly interesting but it doesn't look like shell. Can you post more photos of different angles, and of the surface texture? Also if you know which region of Croatia this came from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abyssunder Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Istria, Croatia ? I could agree that the general shape suggest a muricid gastropod, but the way it is geo-chemically altered makes almost impossible any clear determination.

ynot Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Agree with geologic, just not seeing anything identifiable as a fossil. Tony Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Vieira Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I don't see any fossil there. Only geologic indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
