  • A Fossil From The Village Of Tocobaga

    This little fossil coral head is interesting in two ways. First, it’s just plain cool and secondly it was found in a shell mound context..I’m not gonna say it was used as a paint pot or for some other purpose, check it out and let me know, Hmmm, I wonder what it looks like under the cortex, Thanks for lookin

    It was treasured without a doubt (and that’s why it was in the mound)!

    It's not unusual to find fossils on NA sites. They collected as well.
