Mammoth molar - Cham-Oberwil ZG, Switzerland

Description

[Deutsche Version siehe [hier](https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/f1f5440e8d684291890897eb4a490fa3).] Upper right molar (M3) of a mammoth found in 2018 in a gravel pit near Cham-Oberwil (Canton Zug, Switzerland, see [https://s.geo.admin.ch/86165de2fe](https://bit.ly/2tawtvS)). The tooth was slightly damaged before or during extraction by an excavator. A preliminary C14 date gives an age of at least 29,000 years BP - the molar belongs, just like older finds from the same gravel pit, in the time before the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) of the Weichselian (or, locally speaking, Birrfeld) glaciation!<br> <br> If you use this model, please attribute it to “Amt für Denkmalpflege und Archäologie, Kanton Zug, Jochen Reinhard” and/or link to the [German version of this site](https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/f1f5440e8d684291890897eb4a490fa3). <br> <br> **References** S.
