No fossils found, but picked up a 10,000-year-old relic. Anyang river, Henan, China
hiposong posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Long time no see! How are you everyone?! Here's the story.On June 20, we had just stopped raining, it was cloudy, and I thought it wasn't too hot, so I went to look for a fossil that I had found earlier. It suddenly looked like a spindle worm. But the structure is different. I don't know what it is. Who can tell me? Trapezoid, 2cm long, 1cm wide.Found in the Anyang River. Wow, let me start by sharing with you what I had for breakfast. This kind of food is only available in our city. It's called 'Bian Fen Cai(You know KFC, we jokingly call it BFC)'.Transparent noodles are made of sweet potatoes.Green vegetables, tofu and pig's blood are added and stewed in bone broth.Why don't many regions eat animal blood? Difficult question, but we have a lot of blood food here, and there's a legend that goes back a long time.During the hunting days here, blood and guts were difficult to preserve, so the men turned them into food, bringing easy-to-preserve meat to the women and children of the camp. Digress, this is delicious. Why have I been missing for so long? In 2021, we had a lot of rain here, and my car went for a swim like this. So I can't go far away.So I went by bike. It only took me an hour. Digress again,I miscalculated. There was no sun, but the earth was steaming.When I was frustrated at not finding such a fossil, I casually picked up a rock with the stone skipping.I suddenly realized that the Anyang River had no such stones. It was covered in mud, but I could tell it was flaky mica sandstone.Between this rock source and the Anyang River, there are other rivers that isolate the sediment.So it has to do with Cultural relic. Yes, its edges are ground. There are perforations on both sides, but they're not pierced. Found some information, it should belong to the Xiaonanhai culture.Carbon-14 dates this civilization to about 13,000 years ago.This civilization is on the Anyang River, and interestingly, the earliest writing in China is also on the Anyang River.As for the fate of the stone, of course, it is donated to the museum. Ah, our city is really Historical cities. Have a good day. Wait, who's gonna tell me what that fossil is? -
I found this in some Late Pennsylvanian shale near Lake Bridgeport, Texas. It had the shape of a fusulinid (before the tip broke off of one end) except for a couple of features I'm not used to seeing. There seems to be a constriction across the middle of the test and the surface is pitted all over. It's about 2 mm long. Maybe this is something common and I just missed seeing one until now. Any ideas?

Hi all, Need some help with this ID! I found this fossil years ago on a beach in eastern North Carolina and it's been a mystery to me since. The best answer I could come up with is that these might be some kind of foraminifera (maybe of the fusulinid variety, though these don't seem to have the tapering at either end), but I'm not sure how to go about researching other possibilities. My camera has a tough time with close-up pics, so this is probably as much resolution as I can get. Thanks in advance for the help!

Looking for ID help. I originally thought the fossils were triticites because I found some chert with definite triticites at the same location. But the fossils in the pictured rock are indeed elliptical shaped from the top view (like triticites), but are circular from the side view. The rock is limestone from Pocahontas County, Iowa. The third through sixth photos are microscopic (~40x). The last photo shows a coral located on the underside of the same rock. Fusinilid? corpoloite? ichnofossil? Or what? Your ID info will be appreciated.

This is from the middle Pennsylvanian. Appears to be fusilinids in pink-red sandstone with several orange passengers onboard. They all appear to be centralized to a broken open fusilinid. Only one big enough to really get a couple macro shots of. Any ideas on the orange item? I didn't want to put too much pressure on it, but definitely quite hard (scratch resistant to a needle). 33mm x 25mm" as pictured. Orange unknown is 2mm.
