I am currently not near a fish reference collection so any suggestions as to the species of this specimen are welcome. I believe the element is a dentary, though again I'm not certain. http://www.alexandriaarchive.org/icaz/icazForum/viewtopic.php?t=1046 Regards Martyn Allen Dept. of Archaeology University of Nottingham
