New Members Peter C Posted July 24, 2023 New Members Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) I have a tooth given to me by grandfather - always told it was a camel tooth from Mespotamia [he was there on way to India in WW1] but realise it looks like no camel tooth I can find. Now also realise it is mineralised so probably a fossil of a recent large herbivore. Any ideas??

fossilus Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Looks like an elephantid tooth - possibly mammoth. Probably a tooth lost to wear. It looks like it was nearly worn out when the animal lost it. Edited July 24, 2023 by fossilus Spelling 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
