Dredged years ago from the Maas River, this is a complete fossilized  RADIO ULNA limb bone of the extinct Aurochs (Bos primigenius / taurus).  The robust anatomy attests to the massive weight of this animal that this bone supported.  The color is a beautiful light cream yellow from protective gravel bed burial.  This is the finest quality fossil Ice Age bone you will ever find.  The joints are perfect like glass with perfect dense smooth surfaces, very rare in fossil bone.  This is the highest possible quality specimen - one of the few of the finest fossil bones that were found in years of collecting!  Very minor drying flake split open when first found but has been filled and sealed.  Otherwise, in perfect condition.  No collection or display of Europe's last Ice Age should be without a fossil bone such as this.  UNBROKEN with NO RESTORATION. 

This would make a phenomenal display piece laying alongside European primitive hunting weapons of prehistoric man!  Neanderthals and Cro-Magnon humans lived alongside the Aurochs which played a vital role for resources in human survival during the last Ice Age.  In Europe, the Aurochs were hunted and revered by prehistoric humans.  These magnificent beasts are featured in many of the most famous prehistoric cave art sites in Europe.
