Fin Lover Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I found a few things yesterday that I don't know what they are or where to even begin searching. I'll just post 2 for now. Item 1 appears to be a tooth of some sort. Not sure if it is fossilized. Typically, I would guess not based on color, but I found it in the Goose Creek area, where I also find white and light colored shark teeth. Item 2 was found in the Ladson area, in a creek where multiple formations wash out from the eroding banks. Multiple epochs are possible in all of these locations. Fossil or rock? Thanks for the help!

Meganeura Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Agreed on the first being a modern mammal tooth. A really neat find regardless though! Second looks somewhat like petrified wood to me, but could also likely be a rock or something else. 1 Fossils? I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Lover Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 Thanks for the replies! In searching online for the various mammals that would be in the area, it looks like a coyote canine more than something like a raccoon or opossum. But, yes, still neat regardless of being recent. Thank you! Fin Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
