Random bleached animal bone i saw when i was walking. Sadly the other pictures i took on the walk were hazy or overexposed and this one kind of is too.
The Bone Caves are a series of natural caves set into a high limestone cliff called Creag nan Uamh (Crag of the Caves). The caves are named for the large numbers of animal bones found during excavations.
There are four main cave openings in the cliffs, formed before the last ice age by water dissolving limestone in cracks in the surrounding rock. Subsequent glacial action and erosion of the glen by water left the caves hundreds of feet above the valley floor.
There is no indication that the caves were ever used as human habitat, but two separate human burials have been discovered within the caves.
In total, over 1000 pieces of reindeer antler have been found in the Bone Caves, with dates ranging from 47,000 to 8,300 years ago.
One rare find was the skull of a Northern lynx, dated to 1,770 years ago. This is the only Northern lynx ever found in Scotland. Other intriguing remains include a possible polar bear, arctic fox, wolf, and brown bear.
Finds from the caves are kept at the Royal Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. (Above Information Off Google)

Therefore, personality, human and divine, is marked by a complex unity of opposing forces, the dark ground and the light of reason that keeps the dark ground chastened. " Personality is the perpetual actualization of selfhood; it is the conscious and purposive control of the irrational underlying potentialities."
-Jennifer Newsome Martin, Hans Urs Von Balthasar and the Critical Appropriation of Russian Religious Thought (pg. 93)
Found this on the beach at Mingulay. Just submitted it to London NHM Identification service, who think it's a porpoise or dolphin humerus, not a human toe.
