New Members Mammag Posted May 1 New Members Share Posted May 1 Hi, I suspect I have a piece of vertebra of a mammoth? It was found in the North Sea. The dimensions are approximately 33 cm by 33 cm and 8 cm thick. Would love to learn more about it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClearLake Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 (edited) Very nice!! I suspect you are correct. Looks like it compares fairly well to cervical vertebra 7 from the University of Michigan website. https://umorf.ummp.lsa.umich.edu/wp/mammutidae2/ This U of M specimen is a Mammut americanum and there may be other species that are a better match. I am not familiar with all the choices found in the North Sea Edited May 1 by ClearLake 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
