ha ha ive done it ! gosh that took some working out!!! anyway the one on the left is the one we found . and the one on the right is my horses baby tooth Photobucket

Re: found a tooth not sure as to what from though

The tooth appears to be from a bovine. It is too broad across the crown in relation to its length to be from an Aurochs so it is probably a domestic animal. The even wear across the crown of the tooth indicates that she was well-cared for and probably a dairy cow.

aww many thanks redman .... this has given me a whole new light of life to go out and investigate for more treasure in our area ...

i will try and ask the farmer if there was cows on the land at some point ..

Re: found a tooth not sure as to what from though

WHAT ...Your horses BABY TOOTH ...I didn't even know there were such things !

Good job Red gave you a solid answer to the found tooth, I brought an older posting up to this date, look for "LARGE TOOTH FOUND > > > > " Lots of input but a real fast look ID is tricky.

There's a lot of neat antiquity on your little isle.." Keep looking down "

Can horses really believe there is a tooth fairy

Re: found a tooth not sure as to what from though

yes its my horses baby tooth .. :)

Re: found a tooth not sure as to what from though

Donalewis, domestic cattle have been in the UK since 4000 BC, chances are the farmer can't remember that far back unless he's an Irishman. Realistically the tooth you found could be several hundred years old.
