Harry Pristis Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Definitely bovid. The scorch test doesn't work very well on teeth because enamel and dentin don't contain much collagen. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruitbat Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Darko... Because you only have a relatively small part of the tooth, Harry Pristis' diagnosis as 'bovid' is probably as good as you're going to be able to get. -Joe 1 Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
