Benjaminpb Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hello all! I found this in a north central Texas creek. I’m pretty sure it’s a tooth. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Can you post a shot looking straight down on the chewing surface? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjaminpb Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 I’m thinking it’s half of a tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellseeker Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Benjamin, You have just learned that THE most important photo is the one looking directly down to the chewing surface.. Obviouslu broken... hard to be sure. Most likely Bos or Bison.. 1 The White Queen ".... in her youth she could believe "six impossible things before breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjaminpb Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 That’s very true shellseeker. For some reason I always want to show the root. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood , me also, but the roots are too similar to other stuff.

It appears to have a patination bespeaking some antiquity. Do you think it's from a Pleistocene aged deposit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
