Damage Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 We didn't spend as much time hunting teeth as we usually do and it got dark on us while we were searching. I'm not sure what the bones are from (whale?) but we found these near Jamestown,VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakoMeCrazy Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nice finds! Below the pecten shells.....what are those? The triangular/pyramidal shaped objects. Shells? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obsessed1 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nice haul for only a short while. It is hard to "ID" isolated and worn bones but as you guessed they are most likely whale and or dolphin bone fragments. I have always liked the Isognomon shells. It is too bad you can't ever find complete ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
