Ash Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 What is this? It looks like skull or pelvis, but seems a touch wrong for both..? Currently out in a plaster jacket, so I guess I'll find out next month some time. Oh, its Pleistocene in Australia. A neat thing is there was a vague leaf impression in the clay under it.

coled18 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 @Ash did you dig it out? It seems like it could be a hip bone but it would be much more helpful if you could photograph the entire thing. CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 It's out and in a plaster jacket. Won't be prepping it until next month some time.

coled18 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I'm excited to see how it will turn out then! CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike from North Queensland Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Best guess is a pelvic bone from a marsupial. I would guess where your fingers are in the first photo is where the hip bone slotted in. Once you get it prepped and all the bits glued back together I would suspect the ID will be easy. Nice find.
