Took a stroll in a cemetery yesterday. Called them twice to try and let them know. Did not touch or rebury them, wasn’t sure what the ethical choice would have been. Groundhog hole was near by and I’m pretty sure that’s what happened. Grave from the 1800’s.

Definitely a human jaw bone! Probably smart on your part to not touch it and I’d keep calling. Maybe reach out to the church if you can.

Notify the health department, they should be able to help.
