Tooth?


Nero Wolfe

Recommended Posts

Hi All

        I found this at a beach in Norfolk, UK. It looks like a tooth with a broken tip but I may just be hoping lol. It was dug from the bottom of some cliffs where a mammoth was found in the 90s I believe. Any help would be great. Thanks

Doesn't resemble a tooth to me other than the general shape. Perhaps a bone if sorts. 

Let's wait for others from your area that may be more familiar with bits from that locale.

I'll go with the others.

It so could be a mammoth bone.

I've taken the liberty to crop and enlighten a little your pics.

I think this is a chert nodule, not a bone.

It has a very strange shape for bone and there is no internal structures of bone visible.
