Hi. Thanks in advance for help from anyone.  I recently bought these bones from someone with access to Bone Cabin Quarry, I am 100% confident these came from there. I can tell that some look like limb bones, #3 looks to me like part of a sauropod vertebra (but I could be wrong).  I am fairly new at this. The person said the other Jurassic dinosaurs from the general area included Sauropods: Diplodocus, Camarasaurus, Apatosaurus, also Allosaurus and Stegosaurus. 

There are 15 bones in the photos, numbered 1-15. 

If anyone can tell me with any reasonable confidence about any of these, and how they know (I want to learn), it would be a valuable learning experience for me.  I forgot to put in a ruler, but the box is 16" by 12".

I do appreciate it!

Pictures of each item, from all 6 angles would be needed to even attempt to ID any of these.  :unsure:

Most of these look like non-descript bone chunks to me, but,  I am not a bone guy.

Hello and welcome!

I think what you got there is the first complete skeleton of the elusive chunkosaurus.

But of course others may find diagnostic features with more pictures.

best Regards,
