This tooth comes from a museum Ice Age collection we are selling and once the collection is sold, we will never again have a specimen like this. This is a very rare, massive lower molar tooth from a EUROPEAN Woolly mammoth, Mammuthus primigenius, of the last Ice Age. What's rare is not only its spectacular condition and full root. This is a FINEST-GRADE example with fully intact chewing surface as well as complete roots attached. Rarely, are Woolly Mammoth teeth like this ever found from European deposits. It is a beautiful combination of light gold and warm brown hues with fantastic highlighted chewing plate structures as well as side plate anatomy. The surface is very dense and solid of substantial weight from being so heavily mineralized. This woolly mammoth tooth is complete with NO REPAIR AND NO FABRICATION. 100% GENUINE! Chewing surface is complete and intact. The Woolly mammoth this tooth came from died with this tooth in its jaw.
WOOLLY MAMMOTH TEETH are a popular display fossil of any collection. The famous Woolly mammoth can be considered the mascot animal of the Earth's final Ice Age and this massive beast most certainly gained respect to all that got in its way including both Neanderthals and modern humans.
ALL our Woolly Mammoth teeth are dried for at least one year prior to selling to ensure against disintegration. They are then chemically treated in multiple steps with multiple types of hardeners to protect their intact nature. We guarantee your tooth will not fall apart. If you purchase a Woolly Mammoth fossil tooth from ANY SOURCE without the supplier performing this lengthy drying process and treatment, cracks will likely grow and it WILL likely fall apart as the tooth can take an extremely long time for the core to fully dry.
