Do you have any idea where these are from? After seeing some of your African stuff earlier, when I saw these I was reminded of the fortune-telling bones of the South African sangoma (spiritual healers/witch doctors). Just a thought....
could also be segments of large shells...
Edith..I wish I knew..That is why I am posting my pictures..I am trying to find out about them..I am hoping someone will have an idea!!!
These look like teeth or tusks to me. Walrus? Hippo?
They look like tooth to me..........do you have a macro facility on your camera, and can we see pics of the ends of them please?
