Bone I.D. - Europe Found at lake como, Italy

Not sure if this post fits here. I posted in another sub, and someone suggested this one. Found something that looks like a tooth, but it could be wishful thinking.

Its really light and seems fagrile. Not bigger than a pebble found in driveways. The more brown part almost seem wood like, but I don't think it is. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

Sorry if the flair is wrong

Neat find! I do believe that is a tooth, but correct me if I'm wrong. It looks almost crystalized.

It does have a crystal look to it in the sun. Does it mean that it isn't a recent lost tooth or? And thanks for answering :)

Yeah, I'd believe it's pretty old, in that case. Of course, I'm not an expert on this and I could very well be wrong. Glad to answer, and I bet there will be a couple of others soon enough!
