Hi there,
 

I found this in Fannin County, Texas.

I know it’s a fossilized some sort of bone but not sure to what.

Any help would be appreciated. 
 

Thank you 
 

Jim

Pictures of all sides would be helpful - Top, bottom, front, back, right side, left side.

 

Looks like some sort of fish bone, maybe.

This somewhat looks like broken fish vertebra, but I'm not positive about this.

Could be a broken hypural bone.

Conversely, it could be the back part of a skull of some sort.   :headscratch:

 

More images would help, I think.

 

I'm at a loss, personally. Wait for some other opinions, however.

 

Cropped, rotated, and contrasted:

Hi Fossilguy, Here’s a few more pictures. I was thinking maybe a piece of a skull to something.

Thanks for the additional pics.


Maybe a bit of skull. Not sure what from, though.   :shrug:

  • Fossilcal changed the title to Fossilized bone of? Looks cool but what is it?

I am thinking back end of a fish skull.  

  • I found this Informative 1

When I first saw it, I thought it looked sort of like the tailbone (coccyx) of a human.

Any other ideas on to what this might be?
