 I am so happy! From now on, my posts will feature the famous photo cube by @aerogrower ! Thank you Ray! (Am I using the cube correctly?)

 

I will post three different sets of teeth, all found walking the beach near South Ponte Vedra, FL during the last 4 years.

Tooth 1, Tooth 2, Tooth 3 and Tooth 5 are all horse lower cheek teeth.  Tooth 4 is a horse upper tooth, possibly from one of the Hipparion-type horses.  I can't tell for sure from the pictures if the protocone on Tooth 4 is isolated or not.

I agree with Fruitbat. They look no doubt like horse teeth. Nice finds!

If you're a fossil nut from Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Redondo Beach, or Torrance, feel free to shoot me a PM!
