Mined from: San River, Poland
Era: Pleistocene
Geological Age: 11,700 ya to 2.6 mya
Description: This one of a kind mammoth tooth fossil specimen from the San River in Poland is a thick partial molar with a compact, blocky shape and several well-defined grinding plates. The specimen shows brown dentine and cementum separated by dark grey to black enamel bands, creating the layered pattern typical of mammoth teeth. One side exposes the deep internal plate structure, while the chewing surface shows rounded ridges, natural wear and a darker mineral-stained finish. Cracks, chipped edges and missing sections are present throughout and are consistent with an old river-recovered fossil.
The San River in southeastern Poland cuts through sediments that have produced Ice Age animal remains, including mammoth teeth, tusk fragments and bones. Fossils recovered from river deposits are often stained dark by minerals and organic material in the surrounding sediment. This specimen is from the Pleistocene Epoch, though the exact age and mammoth species cannot be confirmed without detailed collection records and scientific testing.
Mammoth fossils are commonly associated by collectors with endurance, strength, family, memory and survival through difficult conditions. These are traditional symbolic associations rather than scientifically proven properties.
