New Members WendyTX Posted April 22 New Members Share Posted April 22 Found in April 2024, after land clearing, septic dig. Central Texas at approximately 960 ft elevation. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Definitely no skulls pictured. Wait for some locals to weigh in. Probably something without a backbone, though. What county was this found in? That may let us figure out the stratigraphy, and age of the sediments we are dealing with. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 IPFOTM -- MAY - 2024 _________________________________________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Ludwigia Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 These stones appear to me to contain pieces of mineralized ammonites. 1 Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockwood Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 How many pieces are we looking at here. I see a mess of things that are marginally recognizable. I think there is rudist material in the mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockwood Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 It's possible that the skull like shape is ammonite shell and the rest mixed fragments that happened to fill the shell upon deposition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieLynn Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 100 percent rudist in limestone. You are seeing where some of the internal chambers of these weird bivalves fossilized. The first one looks like it's probably a Toucasia. 3 2 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
