Kimi64 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Hi everyone. I found this small cap-like structure at Brownies beach last Saturday. It is around 1.5 cm across. The second is 3.5 cm long and 1.9 cm tall. Any help id-ing these would be appreciated, as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Pristis Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I don't see anything familiar about the first object. The second reminds me of the bridge between plastron and carapace of a water turtle. 1 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...
Innocentx Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I brightened and sharpened your photo. A better focus photos could help. This looks interesting(bony?) but I can't place it. @Rockwood may be right. "Journey through a universe ablaze with changes" Phil Ochs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, it is not modern. 2 "There has been an alarming increase in the number of things I know nothing about." - Ashleigh Ellwood Brilliant “Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.” - Thomas Henry Huxley >Paleontology is an evolving science. >May your wonders never cease!
