Found these teeth in a local creek in N.MS. The bead came from a large cotton field near a mound.

Thanks. Sorry for the small pic. Not sure how to make it bigger. The bead is a soft stone feeling material. Seems to be pretty brittle. I found it in a cotton field in a large creek bottom close to a mound. I looked for more but didn't find anything and this year they planted cotton but didn't till the ground so not great hunting there anymore.

Hey those shark teeth?...might be from the cretaceous..the time of the dinosaurs...Grabs you a screen and screen a washout in that creek..good chances of you finding a dinosaur tooth...highly rare one for that area...The fossils there are also micro...you can tote some that matrix home wash it thru screen door screen let it dry...grab a magnifyer,..and collect rare cretaceous fossils right in your home...Now if you collect an abundance..yous gots dollar bills...... ...now like south carolina?.You can stop off any bridge and collect..the sharks teeth arent cretaceous the are miocene...its the cretaceous you want....The others are very cool though also just less rare.....Jon

Hey Chris..yea the sulpher at our end doesnt have much in the way of fossils..mostly cause of the layers...if ever around ledonia where the water is low...take a closer look..the sulpher divides also around cooper area and commerce..the south sulpher ,mid sulpher, and north sulpher is all good in that area ,of course mostly dinosaur marine creatures but there were marine reptiles also....jon
