Lone Hunter Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Picked this up in Post Oak creek, Cretaceous. Not sure what I'm looking at, don't recognize usual root, is that a chunk of gum attached to tooth? Looks like it was part of larger piece that broke off and left the impression beside it .

bthemoose Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Looks to me like a cusplet and part of the root corner from a larger tooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixgill pete Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Is it possible to take pictures of just the tooth? Less of the rock. And more in focus. Trying to enlarge these the tooth gets very blurry. Also, how big is it? There is no size given, this leaves a lot open to interpretation. Can you give us a measurement in millimeters? If it is just a couple of mm then, yes it could very well be a broken cusp from a larger tooth. But if it is 1/4 inch or larger this makes it much less likely for a Texas Cretaceous tooth. 1 Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt behind the trailer, my desert Them red clay piles are heaven on earth I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt Patterson Hood; Drive-By Truckers May 2016 May 2012 Aug 2013, May 2016, Apr 2020 Oct 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
