Abstract

An ELEPHANT TUSK FOSSIL found during a road construction at southwest of Idughmoush dam located at southwest of MIANEH, was studied. It was in the route of migration of the elephants of PLEISTOCENE from Africa towards Europe. The FOSSIL's weight is 12.95 kg with total length 110, length at lipline 60.5, circumference at lipline 40, circumference at base 45 and pulp length 61 cm. The FOSSIL is free of carbonates and organic impurities. The chemical composition of the FOSSIL is calcium (fluoro, hydroxyl) phosphate or fluor-, hydroxyapatite, Ca5(PO4)3(FOH). The FOSSIL char acteristics show that the elephant was male and it has been estimated to be 25 years old. Based on the height of PLEISTOCENE deposits covered on the FOSSIL, compared to the total thickness of the deposit, the age of FOSSIL is estimated to be more than 150000 years.
