New Members lpatrick624 Posted April 9 New Members Share Posted April 9 Hello! Found this while digging in our yard. Not sure if it's anything, but my son is convinced it's a dinosaur tooth so I told him I'd try to find out. Anyways, we live in Anne Arundel County in Maryland and this was found only 2-3 feet down in very sandy soil. Any insight is appreciated!

New Members lpatrick624 Posted April 9 Author New Members Share Posted April 9 Sorry I forgot to mention that it is hollow! I figure it's probably just a stone but wanted to be sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 There is no enamel, so not a tooth. No root , or root textures either. Can we see a view of the hollow end? Maybe some sort of flowstone?

FossilDAWG Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I agree, definitely not a tooth. Maybe a concretion (ironstone?) that formed around a root? Or (less likely) a fulgerite (fused sand formed by a lightning strike). Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 The photos in HEIC format are not supported by the forum, I’m afraid you have to put it back in JPG.
