ShadesOfSable Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Good morning all! I've had this potential fossil for a number of years, but am uncertain of it's origin as it was sold to me by a roommate for pizza money. He didn't remember the exact location he found it, but said it was from a beach in the south east. Potentially Alabama, Florida, Georgia or the Carolinas. He gave me a long bone and what appears to be a flat bone chunk that were found in the same area, but that may not be from the same creature. I had these pictures already with a lighter for scale, but can take pictures with a ruler when I get home from work. I've done a lot of googling, but as I'm an amateur I don't know that I can draw any real conclusions. Excited to hear what others think and if it confirms what I suspect!

jpc Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 the long bone might be a turtle humerus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Harvey Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Turtle humerus is a good guess. They have that recurved shape. The other bone may be a partial turtle coracoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
