Item Details
Description
Pleistocene Period, 2.6 million-11,700 years B.P. Showing wear in life to biting surfaces, from Mammuthus primigenius. See Lister & Bahn, Mammoths, for general information (a useful introduction). 2.23 kg, 19 cm (7 1/2 in.).
Dredged from the North Sea, probably from Brown Bank, Lowestoft, Suffolk, England, UK. Previously acquired on the UK art market before 2000. Property of a Kent, UK, collector.
Mammoths were animals of the Ice Age; they co-existed with and were hunted by early man. The North Sea basin is a drowned landscape, flooded after the end of the last Ice Age. Fishing trawlers occasionally bring up bones and relics from when the area was inhabited as dry land. [3, No Reserve]
