  • @NocturnalIntellect
    @NocturnalIntellect 6 месяцев назад +1

    I suggest that any bones you find that are smoochy and brittle aren’t that old. The vertebrae you found was obviously older, and had some mineralization going on keeping it intact.
    That was absolutely a shark tooth that you found, and most likely a meg. I’m not sure if any meg teeth are found in the interior of the US. I know you can find them on either coast line. It looks like too big of a chunk to be a great white tooth. In my opinion.
    The last artifact you found may have been a broken drill, or perforator. If it were a scraper you should notice a facet on it. The Yuna face may look faceted, but there should be one on the top as well if it was actually used as a scraper.
    Great finds, and thanks for taking us along!

    Mystery object , is what they call an edestus shark tooth. I found what many thought was an edestus tooth but isnt. yours is a true edestus species tooth. Rare find usually deep in the coal mines. Way older than the megladon if it is in fact what i think it is.

    • @meandmyshadow6269
      @meandmyshadow6269  6 месяцев назад

      Thank you very much for the information! You and one other person has suggested an edestus shark. That might explain the curious shape of the root section of the tooth. It could be the tip or frontal tooth portion of that shark.

    • @Dustink-artifact

  • @eastcoastlithics
    @eastcoastlithics 6 месяцев назад +1

    Im tellin ya thats a meg! Nice drillish looking artifact too. I wonder if that was an unresharpened one that broke prematurely. I would seriously love to hear what a professional archeologist with a microscope camera has to say about those cronoid beads. Are there any historical instances of them being dug in the area? Fun video bro 🫡

    • @meandmyshadow6269
      @meandmyshadow6269  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks ECL! The drill looks a bit dalton-ish to me but it's hard to say with so much of it being broken away. It does have a very slight twist to it so maybe some re-sharpening has been done? I'm not sure. As far as the crinoid "beads" as I call them - I have no idea if any have ever been dug insitu on static sites or not. I have a couple that appear to have horizontal striations on the face that looks like tool or grinding marks. Would also love to see those ones under a microscope. Mostly, my speculation is born out of the fact that A. people still make beads out of them B. they are naturally collectible/desireable and C. they are in abundance. It all goes back to that human instinct to gather and display "shiny" things. Nevertheless, it's still speculation on my part. Thanks for watching, ECL!

    Brother. Concerning bones You do realize that every farmer with cattle leaves the dead in ditches that were sick that died. WITH all the transmitable crap that is coming out do you really want to handle that stuff Ghoul? lol! With it being modern death to boot? I will go along with the CRINOIDS but... Here is why you aren't finding.... To find on big bars with same type rock is almost a imposibility to start needle in haystack comes to mind. It takes all concentration to make a find. Looking at bones starts your eyes looking for that crap. Breaks your mind set. Takes a wile to get back. mean while you stepped over 2 or 3 perfect ones...... You have to stay focused. You been asking what you are doing wrong.... I had to break myself long ago about this in fact I love fossils probably more than you hard deal. What I look for is strait sides, notches. pointed
