This  was found at Westmoreland State park in Va. This is a piece in my own collection. This is a vertebrae from a whale. Its from the Miocene period Please see images and ask any questions Has some missing pieces on the side pieces. These are found on the beach below the cliffs or in the cliff themselves and have to be dug out.

The Miocene  is the first geological epoch of the Neogene Period and extends from about 23.03 to 5.332 million years ago
