AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fossil Mammoth Rib - Mammuthus primigenius
Very beautiful, large, and heavy part of a mammoth rib
At 73 cm a very nice large piece, probably from somewhere in the middle of the rib cage
This rib has been defossilized and is still in clean water; everyone preserves it in their own way, I am happy to leave that to the next owner as well
Doggerland no longer exists, but traces of it can still be found on the beaches of the North Sea. It happens regularly that walkers, enthusiasts, and researchers find something special there
Wondrous treasures such as a Vertebra, tooth, or a rib of a mammoth. Also in pumped-up sandy flats and in fishing nets bones are brought to the surface, as in this late 2024 example
