HeatherS Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) I was walking around a rocky beach west of Galway and spotted this. It looks like a bone, fairly light-weight, and seems like it was hollow in the middle. I couldn’t see any spongy texture, but I’m almost positive it’s a bone. If anyone has an idea of what it is/what it came from, I’d love to hear it. Edited May 20, 2019 by HeatherS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Welcome to TFF! It looks like a tooth. Can You post pictures of all sides and both ends? Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Mark Kmiecik Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Definitely looks like tooth and what ynot said. Welcome to the forum. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Pristis Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Caldigger is correct, the tooth is bovid -- COW, bison, auroch. 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...
