South Carolina is well known for an abundance of fossil shark teeth from the Carcharocles genus – the extinct Giant White sharks. Three different localities are featured. Site 1 is the numerous rivers of coastal S. Carolina are home to Carcharocles megalodon, the extinct Giant White shark. Teeth are recovered in gravel holes at the bottom of these rivers.

These teeth are Miocene-Pliocene in age (2-15 million years ago), but typically come from the Miocene Hawthorne Formation (15 million years ago). A scond site consists of marl deposits in the Dorchester county area yield excellent specimens of Carcharocles angustidens – another extinct Giant White shark ancestor. These teeth are Oligocene in age (25-38 million years ago) from the Chandler Bridge Formation. Site 3 is a few limestone quarries in the Dorchester-Orangeburg counties area that yield superb specimens of Carcharocles auriculatus – the precursor of the extinct Giant White shark. These fossil teeth are found in the Santee limestone which is Eocene age (38-45 million years ago). Site 4 is a land site near Ridgeville, SC.
