RickNC Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Hi all, Found this tooth in Eastern NC. I haven't explored this particular site much yet but so far it has produced Miocene-Pleistocene. I can't seem to find a good match for this one. I'm thinking camelid or cervid but I haven't found anything quite like this tooth in NC. Scale is in inches and the crown measures 1.36" in length. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shellseeker Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I will try to beat Harry to it (because he mostly taught me) You have a camel m3 molar, likely Hemiauchenia macrocephala . This is one of Harry's famous photos Edited to add reverse image photo 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
