2.9 million year old nicely crafted hominin stone tools found in Africa along with butchered hippo remains. Hippo tartare may have been made with them since the use of fire for cooking was not known. https://phys.org/news/2023-02-million-year-old-butchery-site-reopens-case.html

I just obtained a couple of UK mammal fossils. The first one is a 25cm Hippopotamus tusk from Cambridgeshire. The second is a mammoth cuboid also from Cambridgeshire. The Hippo tusk compares nicely with a decent sized T rex tooth replica.

Hello everyone! Behold the only tooth in my collection that doesn't belong to a dinosaur. . My daughter purchased it a few few years ago at the fossil show in Edison, New Jersey. Unfortunately, I've committed the cardinal sin of fossil collecting and lost the card with the name of the animal and the location it which is was found. The only thing I remember is that it was an Ice Age Hippopotamus and that it was found in Germany. Thanks so much for your help! More photos coming!
