Foshunter Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 This is an assemblage of Pleistocene material, minus the Mastodon teeth and bones already in my gallery, found in the river at different times. All this material has a carmel color except the Mastodon which is white, guess it was laid down at different periods. The bone behind the penny is a mystery , thought it was an Equus medial phalanx but is way different than the others pictured. I also have a camel kneecap that was late for the photo, no glory for it. I hope my fellow members don't get tired of seeing my collection, have only one person in my community that is a fossil hunter to show it to. I want to share with other enthusiasts what I have accumulated over the years and maybe someone on the Forum can glean some meager information from my posts--Tom Grow Old Kicking And Screaming !!"Don't Tread On Me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 The subject matter, the arrangements, the photos...there are more than a few appreciative eyes here which will never tire of such!

Fruitbat Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Quite the Pleistocene menagerie you've got there. Is that a sloth phalanx that is sitting on top of the metapodial? -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracer Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Quite the Pleistocene menagerie you've got there. Is that a sloth phalanx that is sitting on top of the metapodial? -Joe it looks like TWO sloth phalanges on the metapodial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefootgirl Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I learn a lot from your posts and always enjoy seeing material from the Sulphur.

Fruitbat Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Tom... Having spent countless hundreds of hours in the NSR channel myself, I KNOW how difficult it is to find intact Pleistocene material. Your collection is very impressive. -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindsey Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Very nice collection there and as BFG stated always nice to see fossils others pull from the NSR. As from my recent post in id section I believe I have a bone that appears to go with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
