Paleontological and Paleobotanical Museum (Nostimo) teeth of a shark that was 20–25 m long, and a Late Pliocene (3.5 million years old) tooth of an "Anancus arvenensis", a mastodon, an ancient relative of the elephant, which has been recognised here for the first time in the wider area of Western Macedonia. The mastodon which lived in this area was about the same size as a modern elephant, but with longer tusks. Also displayed are some Neolithic tools (from the 4th millennium BC): a fishing weight, and a blade for harvesting crops.

Cerutti Mastodon site Cerutti Mastodon site The Cerutti Mastodon site is a paleontological and possible archeological site located in San Diego County, California. In 2017, researchers announced that broken mastodon bones at the site had been dated to around 130,700 years ago. Since the bones were found with cobblestones displaying use-wear and impact marks among the otherwise fine-grain sands, intentional breakage of the bones by hominins using the stones has been suggested by the researchers. If this is so, then some form of "Homo" may have been present in the Americas at an extremely early age. The Cerutti Mastodon site (SDNHM locality 3767)
