another cool find
was the latest woolly mammoth found
so fresh it had clone- able blood

but whats even more fantastic is....
within the blood they found an antifreeze agent
similar to whats found in fish down 1 mile or so deep

imagine getting an injection so your never cold again....?
but then of course you'd prolly get wooly hair growth
and end up looking like NEBE

Nice brew pot!

Anyway your find is very cool too. I know nothing about keeping relics from the sea but you may want to check into preserving it if you havent already. For some reason I thought I read or saw something a while back about how shipwreck items are somewhat preserved for years underwater but have to be handled in some special way/process when removed from the sea or they deteriorate once brought to the surface (exposed to air)

Again I dont know squat about it but recall hearing something like that once upon a time.

Simplify.......

Jenn is right as far as preserving that stuff. I new barry clifford somewhat and followed his work with the Whidah. I think all his discoveries were immerse in water

I have a woolly mammoth tooth I found in Alaska in 2005 . I keep it in a bucket of water so it wont separate . I keep it that way cause that is the way its been for over 10,000 years . I brought it too the Peabody Museum here in New Haven for them to check out . They have a large room filled with them . If it doesn't stay wet it will separate into pieces

Nice find nebe . talk to your local museum and they will tell you how to take care of it and may even have info on it .
