Hugh Mongous Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Hello all, I am Hugh Mongous. I registered here today in the hopes that someone can identify one of my finds. But since this is the introduction section, I’ll start with that. I’m not really called Hugh and my last name is not Mongous. But you figured that out by now I guess. My birthplace and place of residence is the Netherlands, I’m currently 36 years old and to be honest, not really a fossil hunter. I am mildly to very interested in anything old, depending on the day and my mood. My main interests being geology, paleontology and archaeology. Tho it has to be said my knowledge of them is somewhat lacking as I never really did anything more than read about them occasionally. Probably forgot at least half of what I red because I’m a scatterbrain… Anyway. My best friend and I were digging around in a pile of dredged up shells a while ago and found something interesting. At least, I hope it is. So I’m going to go ahead now and make a topic in the appropriate section and see if anything comes up.

And no, unfortunately not. I thought it was a fossilized wing of some sort, but the kind people of TFF burst my bubble and ID'd it as a fish bone that is not particularly old.
