AMAZING Large Heavy ONE-OF-KIND EXTINCT JAVAN HIPPOPOTAMUS SPECIES(Est 500,000YRS-1 MYA )Amazing Large One -of- Kind Extinct Javan Hippopotamus Est 1-1.5 MYA Species : Believed to be Hippopotamus sivalensis sivajavanicus However one of a kind
Description : These originally had ancestors 55 Million years ago which evolved to similar hippos of today 35 million years ago originally in Europe and then Africa then ASia . The earliest known of this species found (only parts and sections-this is only know complete skull ) was 1.5 Million years ago in same area Javan man is discovered which is 1 million years old . Aside from elephants and rhinos , hippos are the largest land mammal IT is also the largest extant land artidactyl. Deespite their physical resemblance to pigs and other even-toed ungulates they are closely related to cetaceans like whales and diverged on land 55 million years ago. Hippos have barrel shaped torsos, wide opening mouths with large canine Tusks with almost complete hairless bodies and weigh about 3300 lbs IT is capable of running 19 miles per hour over short distances and are the most deadly animal in wild -responsible for more deaths of humans than crocodiles or tigers in Africa . ON modern hippos called H. amphibius only 67 survive in Java with some in W, E, Congo and Cape Africa . Close to extinction in Java . These were smaller species so approximately 2000 lbs (1 ton) so still huge Geological Age : Early Pleistocene Fauna) found with Trinil Tiger and Stegodon that has this age also Item area found : Area known for Java Man Trinil on Banks of Solo River in East Java (This species also found a few partials in West Java . This one was earliest known species with man as all other areas earliest known like Europe and Africa is at least 160,000 years ago . This probably is a million year old Hippo Only a few parts like a palate with incisors and a few other pieces and one upper found before this Description and Rating 10 This is a find of a lifetime . The probability of this being at least 1 Million years old is high . It’s the only known entire skull of an extinct Javan Hippo of this species that exists. The Skull is 23 inches long with incisors and 21 inches without and the width is almost 14 inches. The upper had lots of iron embedded in bone and on bone and it was cleaned off with a resulting reddish dark brown color .This is the only known complete set. Also look at the dark color and amount of iron was massive so highly mineralized which means 1 MYA .As I said these actually have cetacean relatives(whales) but went to land 55 million into off shoots of current hippos so they are older than all large mammals except with exception of rhinos . This is so amazing and is the oldest species known as well as only skull of that species . NO one has this and it’s in great condition. IT has some wear as due to age and a hard mineral formed in skull mostly iron and had to be removed just like a Jurassic dinosaur. While highly mineralized on outside which shows age alot time. It would be great to have a skull of Java man as a lifelong dream but just not available . 4 Canine Tusks are present, with all side teeth plus many of incisors. Only 1 incisor restored. There is a little resto around the nasal area, inside one zygo for an inch and a few spots with repair on crack fills but it’s at least 97% complete. Upper and lower skull is amazing . Anyway I had to show you this nonexistent but here piece . Only a few pieces of hippo have been discovered in Java over 1 MYA so this is more likely ½ million years old Orginal Price: $29, 999 One of A Kind Valueless Todays estimated $35,000 -40,000 call with questions 706-235-2694 Only one known anywhere Reduced Price : $24,900 this creature has uppers and lowers , which means it may be the only 1 in existence Only wire accepted call 706-235-2694 Check could be also but wire less risky in todays world ASk for Alan or write paleoman@dinolandplus.com |

Gigantic 32” Adult WOOLY RHINOCEROS Entire Skull Highly Original(Upper 100% Original)w All TEETHGIGANTIC 32” ADULT WOOLY RHINOCEROS ENTIRE SKULL Highly Original WITH ALL Real TEETH Species: Coelodontia antiquitatis (Wooly Rhinoceros) Species description: An adult wooly rhinoceros was 14 ft in length and 12 ft high and 2 horns on the skull are made of keratin with the anterior horn larger than 3 ft long horn between its eyes. It had thick long fur, small ears , short ,thick legs and a stocky body. It used its horns to sweep away snow from vegetation so it could eat in the winter and defensive purposes. It did survive the last glaciation period unlike most all other mammals of its time as it was hardy and could withstand most anything but man
Geological strata: Pleistocene Fauna
Geological period: 1.8MYA -9,000 yrs ago
Item location: SIBERA , RUSSIA
Rating and item description : 1-10 9.5 VERY RARE HUGE 32” WOOLY RHINOCERAS Whole SKULL w /All Natural Teeth with Beautiful Brown Color. IT is very High and also 15 Inches Wide. The Upper is 100% Natural with only 1 crack fill and 2 teeth placed in perfectly to complete . This was in my personal collection so never seen before. The lower had very back articulation point repaired and reconstructed bone. The rest of lower was found whole and jaws were together. This lower matches perfect with color, size in most areas except the back of lower which was reconstructed so it is from this Rhino. I’ve only had a few of these in 25 years, and now no one will be getting any more . According to my friend in Belgium as of the first of year Russia has laws now of items leaving country which are mainly fees procured by government before leaving but no import laws here. Since this was in my collection I had no interest anyway of getting something from Russia of course . This was bought in USA as it was here for many years in my collection . This is from an old collection for decades in a warehouse, and never prepped until I did the prep. These are found only in Russia now, but used to be Poland, Belgium, Netherlands , and a number of Eastern Europe Countries, as none in Europe have been found in years due to most areas including home caves being now off limits unless private property. While this has no large horns, I do have some juvenile horns you can get very inexpensive . If it was a large horn the price would be over $50,000, so it’s a way of getting a real horn cheap as you will never have an opportunity again to get a real one -either skull or horn. I saw one with a horn in Tucson this year for $80,000 that was there for many years . Only a few ever have the smaller horn real as only a handful have ever been found. All 4 molars on each side are present. It’s a great representation of the species. The lines and attributes are fine and the top, back, and front are perfect with all bone original on the upper . The top upper in front have little projectiles called protuberances which are so detailed and not worn and many don’t have near the detail as this one. Keep in mind only Russia has these now, and you can get this one in USA as I did . I will not send this to Europe only USA . IT displays well on its molars and I’ve seen these on ebay for $20,000-$30,000 with fake horns so step up to the plate and hit a home run and buy this. It is heavy but can be carried or mailed on a skid . I see huge upside investment in this piece for any of you and hope you see it too as you won’t be seeing these ever in future . Due to color this one looks old . I can’t tell on this one if a Female or Male Online only a few exist and one at ebay with no backs of lowers is 33,000 and one at well known fossil shop is $42,000 just for the skulls so mine is dirt cheap
