Large ruminant, probably Bison; metatarsal. Are there Pleistocene deposits there? Judith -----Original Message----- From: paleonet-owner@nhm.ac.uk [mailto:paleonet-owner@nhm.ac.uk]On Behalf Of Bill Chaisson Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 8:53 AM To: paleonet@nhm.ac.uk Subject: paleonet big black bone I need some help from the vertebrate paleontology community. An undergraduate student found this bone: http://www.earth.rochester.edu/ees207/Bone/mysterybone.html on the beach at Atlantic City, New Jersey. She was there during the first week of December near the time of some rather vigorous East Coast winter storms. Does anybody have any idea what this is from or how old it might be. The black color is pretty striking. Thanks, Bill Chaisson -- ----------------------------------------------- William P.
