Bone guy Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I've been seeing a few of these fossils on an auction site. They are all saying that they are part of the skull, probably the top. Is this true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Could be.

Haravex Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 It's hard to say from just the one individual picture however given the line of symmetry and the sides that look like sutures of other bones should connect I would say yes partial top of skull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
