Raysun Posted November 11 Posted November 11 I found it atop a small hill near a a dry creek bed near the foothills of the Florida Mountains in Deming NM. Hoping it is what it looks like.

Yoda Posted November 11 Posted November 11 I agree with @Fossildude19 There is no symmetry that one would expect to see on a turtle shell MotM August 2023 - Eclectic Collector
jpc Posted November 12 Posted November 12 google fossil turtle to see what they look like. As mentioned above, not symmetry is a big clue.
digit Posted November 12 Posted November 12 Looks like a concretion that is weathering and cracking similar to a septarian concretion. Cheers. -Ken
