Miocene_Mason Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Maybe a worm vert, but any guess is probably just that, a guess with how worn it is. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Just a hunch, but that hole says jaw to me. Vessel passage not tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I think that hole is the lumen of the bone, too big for the passage of a vessel for me.

Vessels and nerves. The opening in the moose jaw I have measures 1.5 cm. Cetaceans are much larger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boesse Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Looks like the back end of a small baleen whale mandible, with the mandibular foramen exposed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Yes ! I thought maybe. The size at it's opening is actually an adaptation to hearing in water if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
