Masp Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 What's going on everyone? Been going to Poricy park and have some other things that I will post later ( also some finds from trips big brook). One of the strangest things I came across was this bone...would anyone know what this is ? I don't believe it is modern because it feels like solid rock when I slightly tapping against the ground. Let me know what you guys think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darktooth Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Well, the edge looks too clean. Like it was cut with a saw. So I don't think this is a fossil. I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izak_ Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I agree. It still looks old, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erose Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Funny scene in an early Law and Order episode and they are digging for bones behind a building in the city and they cop holds up something like that and is convinced it's human and the ME says no it's BBQ.

It doesn't take that long for modern bone to absorb minerals from the soil, which in turn discolor it, thus making it appear old. 1 I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie.

Pemphix Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 +1 for modern butchered bone. On the left upper part of the bone you can see the striations of the saw/tool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 For those that may not be aware; the park is in a fairly heavily populated area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
