The piece visible in the photo offers a characteristic molar shape, with several distinct cusps and two separate roots. Its ivory color shows natural shades, from creamy white to beige, with a smooth surface and some visible micro-traces of patina, testifying to its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tooth, photographed against a black background with a yellow ruler for visual reference, reveals precise details: well-defined reliefs on the crown, no major fractures on the exposed side, and a complete root structure on the visible side. No inscriptions or markings are observable on the part shown. The sharp contours and slightly blunted tips are typical of an ancient specimen that has been handled or exposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe slightly satin texture of the tooth reveals a few dark micro-spots, probably due to natural patination.
