I agree with Sheila and Susanne I think it looks much more like a
horse canine than a sea mammal tooth, they are usually not so heavily
curved.

Hi All!
I have a mystery tooth in need of identification. I'm not sure of
the archaeological context but it came from an excavation in Nordland
county, Norway. My thought is this tooth is a canine from a sea
mammal says the fish guy:-)
Thanks everyone!
Colin
