In the jaw that is shown above, many unworn, keeled, diamond-shaped surfaces of the stacked teeth are visible. Furthermore, the teeth erupted in a way that there was more than one tooth functional in each vertical row: The teeth rotated during their lifetime around the long axis of the jaw so that a new tooth first reached the mouth cavity on the inner side of the jaw, yet before the older tooth or teeth, sitting closer to the cheek, were entirely worn down. The tooth wear acting on the surfaces of about one hundred functional teeth formed an inclined chewing surface on each tooth battery. In the image above the chewing or wear surface is
