Czacha Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hello! I have fossil antler. Is it possible that it could be antler from Megaloceros giganteus? It is 47 cm long. Kind regards, Paweł Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czacha Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 It weighs 0,6 kg and it has a diameter about 6 cm. So is it possible that it could be antler from Megaloceros giganteus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calhounensis Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 It looks like Red Deer to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Where was it found?

Czacha Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 I bought it on the Internet so I do not know where it was found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I agree with calhounensis. Don't looks like a Megaloceros giganteus partial antler, but I think Cervus elaphus (Red Deer) could be a good candidate.

Taogan Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Looks too round to me, Megaloceros had antlers that were flatter, a bit like fallow deer. Another vote for red deer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I don't know how much it worth and how much you paid it, but it seems you made a good trade.
