Keep finding teeth!

[timekiller]

I have found these quite often along the river shores in NC. I usually see them in areas where I find Indian artifacts. I found these while metal detecting around an old homesite from the late 1700s where I am finding early colonial and Indian relics washing out from the banks. I have been told that they are either teeth or hooves from either bison or horses. I figured alot of other people have probably found them also and may know more about them.

Teeth are correct...looks like you may have some real old ones there.

Thanks! I felt like they were probably teeth but I weren't sure. Have any idea wether they are from horses or bison or even something else?

The pics below are bison teeth. The yellow arrows point to distinguishing feature of bison teeth.

From my angle, the bottom left looks like a deer. You may have a combination. Ill make a wild guess on the others- horse. You forgot something for size.

Here's a pic showing the size of the largest ones. Thank you!

Thanks! That must be what they are. They look exactly like your picture! Well, that means they are very old since I live on the east coast of NC and it's been a long time since buffalo roamed this area. Thanks again!
