    My life of Geology began at age 3, 71 years ago, watching the water drain along a curb in Dayton Ohio. To this day I remember the details of interest. At age 74, I have discovered a new type of Ohio Fossil the world is unaware of. I was too till I met Ohio State University in Newark Ohio. Now I find Ohio Ice Age Monters , Reptiles of 13,000 years ago in the SW Corner in top of the ground Alluvial and Fluvial deposits in 3 meters. One Massive Serrated tooth so heavy I need two hands to hold it, and then a matching smaller one. The Remains of humans from Ice Age, CAVE MAN stones... Now I love Ohio Fossils on a whole new level,

    I’ve lived in SW Ohio most my life and have a degree in geology. We have amazing rocks around here and it’s hard to find them without fossils unless you’re looking at glacial outwash in the rivers. The best place to find fossils are the road cuts as they have not been eroded as much as the creek beds. Cool video!

      The record of a 2 million year long Quaternary is where the Cavemen Lie with the strange other worldly animal remains they lived amongst. I have an entire collection tripping me out every day now. Thank you OSU Newark, Ohio. The challenge is getting this discovery out there, when MODERTORS in Geology are pooping on the knowledge, that these even exist.

    4:16, that looks to be Treptoceras duseri, the next one too. It's a species of orthoconic nautiloid and the spot your hunting at looks to be part of the Drakes formation. I live inside the Drakes (Kentucky) and always love seeing what other people find. Going on a hunt tomorrow!

    I've found working in ohio rn that alot of material they've used for building contain countless fossils. Kind of bizzar to see so many 500 million year old fossils just in peoples yards on on their houses.

    I went to Hueston Woods about ten years ago. By far one of my more productive trips for fossils.
    Most of them are compacted plates of Byzoans and Coral with some Brachiopods.
    I found my first Trilobite while I was there altho it was in one of the aforementioned crush plates and was upsidedown. It was a good specimen but it wasn't the greatest I could have found.

      I'm an Ohio native, grew up there, went to college there, etc. Then got married and moved out closer to her family. I miss Ohio in a lot of ways, and it'll always be home to me.

      Probably a good 20, maybe 25 minutes away from there (depending on how many police officers there are between the two places. Ha! J/K). That whole area is loaded with fossils everywhere.
      You can collect at Caesar Creek after getting a free permit, there is a ton of material to look through there.

    Wow you found some good size fossils and a nice variety. Here in Columbus, I fond a lot of smaller ones. I never know where to look. I am trying studying an Ohio glacial geology map and other tools that may help, but I'm not very good with interpretation or narrowing down areas. I'm a rock hounder, but zoology and botany make more sense to me. Really great video, Joe!
