EEN VONDST VAN REUZENHERT BIJ DELFZIJL (GR.)

Samenvatting

During the construction of a pipeline under a railway near Delfzijl two fossilized bones were found. One of the bones, a metatarsus, was identified as giant deer, Megaloceros giganteus Blumenbach. The other bone is a fragment of a humerus and belonged to a large ruminant. Whether this is giant deer, aurochs or bison could not be determined with certainty.
