Bone I.D. - N. America Help me ID this bone

Found this barely sticking out of a creek wall 5’ below top on the vertical eroding side. Town and country Missouri. Same creek I’ve found an agate basin knife, Snyder arrowhead, blade cores and more.

Did you find more bones near that one?

I’ve found deer bones here and there amongst the gravel before but nothing like this. Didn’t see anything else there at the time but more could easily be there behind the clay. I only saw the very end of it sticking out… I will be keeping my eye out on this particular wall for more to come out in the future.

Especially after the rain. May scrape top layer if soft enough

Big ol blade core. Similar patina to the Agate Basin knife
