We know the guy on the right is Guillame Chanfreau. But what's the thing he's holding?

We found this at San Clemente on Saturday. It's either a tail or a spine. The part in Guillame's hand doesn't appear to be a head. Seemmed more like a pelvis or torso.

Anyone have any thoughts? (I've also asked the experts at AOP and will let you know if they come up with an answer.)
