1 year, 3 months ago1 year, 3 months agoScaled. This is definitely a skull. Would love any thought/info #fossil
-
Sandstone lol sorry
-
Definitely not a skull
-
yea i agree with @bill-heim it is not a skull. the features are too distorted and if it was a skull it would not look so bumpy and also theres no real evidence of a beak or jaw bones or teeth
-
Thank you

Native American carving?

1 year, 3 months ago1 year, 3 months agoThe word “blob” you used tells me your opinion is not scientific….no offense meant, but I need someone with credentials to tell me it is not so. Again, thank you for the input though.

What is it? from the myFOSSIL app 1 year, 3 months ago
1 year, 3 months ago1 year, 3 months agoWhat kind of skull is this? Found in local creek.
-
Not a skull. The white blobs might be shells but I can’t tell from the photo. What is certain is that it is not a skull.
-
Thanks for your input, but I am certain it is.

Its definitely a skull not sure what type it is tho.
-
Blob is a perfectly acceptable term when describing something indistinct and blobby, like the white bits in this. The photo is too low resolution to tell what they are. This is still not a skull. The holes that suggest eyes and nostril should go all the way through. Even on a fossil if they fill in the matrix is distinctly different than the bone.…[Read more]

Ty for your opinion.

Rock. If I could post them, I have pictures of a rock that looks just like a skull to. Nice conversation piece however.

Too. Thank you, as well…James Preston

I am amused as well😂

@ginny-sims why are you so defensive just because somebody used the word blob? it is just a word and also somebody can use a word and still be a respectful scientist. blob can be an adjective which was how it was used in this case to describe shells. You do not need to have credentials to be respected and to know things. And if you were so certain…[Read more]

also not a skull, not enough detail and the features look distorted

Just posted the picture of the rock that looks like a skull. Found by a farmer I met once. It is really a chert nodule with quartz.

Hey Ginny, this is a super cool fossil! We’d love to add it to our research database. Would you mind taking more pictures with a scale bar and filling in a few more fields. For classification you can put phylum Brachiopoda unless you know a more specific name. You can use the app or website Rockd to figure out the geochronology and…[Read more]

Hey Ginny, awesome fossil! We’d love to add it to our research database if you have the time to fill out a few fields. First, you’ll need to take pictures from multiple angles of the specimen with a scale bar. It appears your fossils are evidence of crinoids, or sea lilies! You can input the class Crinoidea into the taxon wizard for the…[Read more]
