1 year, 6 months ago1 year, 6 months agoHello,
Thank you for sharing! Unfortunately, it will be difficult to verify this is a fossil without some more information and photos. Since it is a landscape boulder, it will likely be very hard or impossible to determine where the rock originated from. Knowing where it came from would be extremely important for determining the age and what…[Read more]

1 year, 9 months ago1 year, 9 months agoAdditionally we have the issue of Archaeology vs. Paleontology. Archaeology is the study of man particularly man made objects such as the pyramids, arrowheads, axes, pottery, etc. Paleontology is the study of ancient life, i.e. fossils of animal and plant life. Man made objects are NOT fossils. I am sure there are plenty of archaeology sit…[Read more]

If it is out focus, I am going to state that it is out of focus, monitor it for a few days to give you a chance to retake the picture, and then if it is not reposted, I am going to delete it.

@tom-fire you can design a better one if you’d like

I had absolutely nothing to do with the design of this app. It existed well before I was an online curator. Posting poor pictures is on the picture taker not the app developer. Do you blame Amazon when you upload a picture that no one can tell what it is?

1 year, 9 months ago1 year, 9 months agoOne of the MOST important details to add identification is the location of where you found it (and no we don’t want your house address). The location can give us information of the geologic formation and age of the fossil which is key data for identification. If you bought it, indicate so. We want your specimens and have no use items in a museum.

Victor Perez replied to the topic Crocodile Tooth? in the forum What Is It? 1 year, 9 months ago
1 year, 9 months ago1 year, 9 months agoHi Pete, I think you are correct. The tooth appears to be from the marine crocodile, Thecachampsa. The fossils at Holden Beach come from multiple stratigraphic layers, so it is difficult to narrow down the age of your tooth and the specific identity.
You may also want to compare your tooth with mosasaur teeth, which can also be found at Holden.…[Read more]
