The pointy end is actually the root. I believe this maybe a sus incisor.

I will agree with incisor.  Cannot say which animal.  Modern, though, not a fossil.

Thanks for the information, I had never seen a tooth like this where the root comes to point. That being said, I am all wanderer and just started picking up interesting finds, so classification and identification is entirely new to me.

I agree with fossilized6s -- domestic pig incisor.

Big help! Just looked at some comparisons, seems very close if not spot on.
