Looking for help!

[TwilitSquid]

Hey everyone! I'm new around here and found this place for some help.

 

When I was doing field work I came across this guy and I can't seem to figure out what it is. Since I'm a geologist, I'll have a chance to talk to my old paleo professor but I wanted to ask everyone here first. I found it in the Charco, TX area on the shoreline of the San Antonio River.

 

If anyone needs better images, I can do my best to add more. 

 

Thank you!!

I made sure to email my professor about that. I'm lost on what this little guy could be. Also I don't know if this would help, but it's about 2 inches long.

Hang in there. There could much more knowledgeable folks along.

This kind of looks like a horse talus, that is missing sheared off portion. I don't know how large these were in fossil horse species.

I think is too worn for a proper diagnosis, but it looks like a pelvis fragment, to me.
