weezieboo Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Hi Folks, I've been holding onto this for years as it always looked like a tooth to me. Any help would be appreciated. I found it while hiking at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon in the 90's. Probably a rock just wanted see what others thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Welcome to the Forum. I have to agree. The lack of enamel, and lack of any bone material suggest rock for this item. Keep on looking.

grandpa Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Welcome to the forum! I too think your suspicions are correct - it is a suggestively shaped rock and not a fossil. 5 hours ago, weezieboo said: Probably a rock just wanted see what others thought. Welcome to the forum! I too think your suspicions are correct - it is a suggestively shaped rock and not a fossil. But the fact that you picked it up and held on to it shows an awareness and interest in a hobby that can yield loads of fun and education. AND, you've come to the right place to nourish that interest. Again, Welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
