Name:  Hippopotamus Hexaprotodon sivalensis
Geologic Age:  Pliocene
Stratigraphic detail:  Solo River
Location:   Java, Indonesia
Comments: This is a wonderful left lower jaw from a Hippo.  It is fully agatized and is heavy!  All of the teeth are present along with jaw line.. and the tusk is full and sharp.  There are also some of the teeth present along the front of the jaw..  Very very nice specimen.. I have never seen another offered on the web.  This is a RARE opportunity to own such a complete and displayable specimen from an already RARE animal!!!    It is much more impressive in person..  the photos just don't do this one justice  (and it doesn't help that I'm sitting in a hotel room taking these shots at Show! hehehe...)
