I believe this to be a horse metatarsal, most likely Equus. But am wondering since it was found in mixed Pleistocene / Pliocene sediments if it could be a Pliocene species. That is saying it is horse of course, you know Mr. Edd. It was found in a quarry in eastern NC that contains Pliocene Yorktown formation and a Pleistocene pebble lag. It was protruding from a sloped area that extended down into a shallow pit. The sediments pushed down were mixed Yorktown and the pebble lag. Mammal fossils are uncommon in North Carolina and they are usually teeth. Bones, especially complete are almost unheard of.

Hi Fossil Forum - I found this object which I think is a bone near the State Line campground in the Vermillion Cliffs area of Arizona/Utah. It measures approximately 3" in radius. Is it a bone?

my dad found this fossil at an old boy scout camp in our home town of Marion, Ohio. was wondering if anyone might have a clue as to if it's a bone of some sort...leg bone, arm bone. the markings shown in the pic are really cool. it measures around 3 inches long maybe 2 inches wide at the top and bottom. any info would be appreciated! thanks!

Hello! I recently purchased this piece in Madagascar. I was told that it is a dinosaur bone and was found in Majunga. I would love help in learning more about it. You can see that it is two main parts (which fit together) and there is some evidence of repair work. There are some crystals in the middle of the bone, which I think looks very pretty.
