Fossil haul from Venice

[Sh@rkW@tcher]

I had great weekend of diving/fossil hunting last weekend, and I thought i'd share with y'all some of my treasures. Here are the before and after pictures.

The inventory: 3 Mammoth teeth, 2 partial Mammoth teeth, 10 assorted horse/camel teeth, 1 beaver incisor, 1 alligator tooth, 1 large vertebrate (not sure of the species), and the ball head of a Mammoth humorous or femor.

WHAT?? All that and you didn't bother with the rest of the carcass!

Oh, and you better not show Pete, he'll cry!

Thanks for sharing. Nice finds!

Check these out.

The top two photos are my finds from the Cooper River Charleston SC

The bottom is a Meg I saw in a local fossil show.

Here is a mammoth tooth after polishing. Saw it in a fossil show. Kinda looks like your finds. Although the form and shape are a little different. Have you identified your finds? I recognize the horse teeth.

Not to steal any secrets, but where was this? Alhambra? Service Club? The mythical boneyard?
I usually go out to Alhambra, but have been to Service Park Beach a couple of times. Nothing like what you found though.

None of the above!

I know.
Heading out there this morning.
There has been a lot of mammal finds there.
Shark teeth are scarce.

Nice.
I'm headed to Venice tomorrow, guess I'll choose a new spot and see what happens.
