Tranquility and Joy through Nature's Beauty and Light. Starlisa's Fine Art Photography of the Pacific Northwest
I am working at a local museum now, the Gorge Heritage Museum in Bingen, Washington. Today I had a local visitor and his mother who brought 3 fossilized teeth in to show me. They are hoping to identify what the teeth may be. I am guessing Bovine style from the looks, but presumably much older than cows. They are also quite large. Fascinating! I really enjoyed looking at them and holding their heavy smooth weight in my hands. Here are photos in case anyone has a lead for me!
My mother taught me to love the world around me… and if I can help others to see with new eyes by showing that beauty through photography. I have accomplished my hearts goal . Husum, WA is my childhood home and I consider home to be anywhere from Mount Adams to the Columbia River. I give thanks to my parents for their love for Nature and God. Starlisa.smugmug.com My work can be found online in full on Flickr, and while I am not set up to sell on that site, if you find a print of any size or style you wish to inquire about simply email me and I can send you a price list of prints by themselves or framed or mounted on foam core, gallery wraps, and standouts. I also license my photos for use in magazines, travel brochures and for web site use, and have been published several times. During the summer I am often at Saturday Market in Trout Lake or Hood River with my Note Cards and Prints You can also find me on Google as Darlisa Black, and on Facebook as Starlisa Black Photography www.flickr.com/photos/starlisa Starlisa.Black@gmail.com Thank you for Viewing… View more posts

Getting feedback that these are Equid teeth, not bovine as I had thought. Horse!

These appear to be very old and yet maybe from a Juvenile Mammoth.

Fossil experts are all in agreement that they are actually Equid, not bovine… so not mammoth, but a horse from pleistocene period perhaps.
