Thanks, Fossilman! I'm going to go with Inoceramid for the shell, and that's what I was wondering, with the teeth. (Maybe some sort of deer, and then the larger one I hesitate to guess... maybe bison?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.N.FossilmanLithuania Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 eolson76 of course you are right, the smaller tooth is deer and bigger is Bison like. What is the age of the teeth? If they are from Miocene or earlier times, the Bison would belong to rare and interesting species... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, they were actually found amongst the white gravel that had been hauled in to landscape around the newer farmhouse, when it was built in the 70s. (So while still technically found on the farm, those two pieces didn't actually originate from there. Nor can I give a certain description of where they had come from, unfortunately.) They do seem quite mineralized and dense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.N.FossilmanLithuania Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Thank you eolson76, I think they should be older than pleistocene so the deer and bison can belong to rare and old species. Best Regards Domas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
