2.8" Polished Mammoth Molar Slice - South Carolina

This is a interesting, 2.8" long slice of a Columbia Mammoth (Mammuthus columbi) molar collected from a river in South Carolina. It has been sliced and highly polished to a mirror like finish on both sides. Really an interesting piece. It comes with an acrylic display stand.

The Columbian mammoth was one of the last members of the North American megafauna to go extinct: its date of extinction generally is set at approximately 12,500 years ago. The Columbian mammoth was a savanna and grassland inhabitant, similar to the modern African elephant. Large males grew to about 13 feet tall at the shoulder and weighed up to 7 tons, with tusks that could grow as long as the mammoths were tall.
