.91" Camarasaurus Tooth Crown - Skull Creek Quarry
This
A Camarasaurus skull cast showing how the teeth looked.
is a nicely preserved tooth of the sauropod dinosaur Camarasaurus grandis. Camarasaurus had very distinctive, chisel shaped teeth indicating it probably ate courser vegetation than other sauropods.
The crown is .91" with detailed, black enamel preservation. There are some minor crack repairs and a tiny area of restoration to stabilize the fossil. It comes from the Salt & Pepper Quarry at Skull Creek, near Dinosaur Colorado. This tooth came from a sandy layer in the quarry about a meter below the layers that contain articulated dinosaur remains. This sandy layer contains teeth and tumbled bones fragments but no articulation, most likely representing an event such as a flood.
