Best Answer

A dense heavy bone would not float and a skull without any internal contents through decomposition or insect infestation would not hold water or a probable air pocket and so would sink, light porous bone might float especially in sea water. If a skull had previously been buried and there had been a gradual filling of the cranial cavity with soil so that an air pocket was formed within the area above the ear holes and nasal hole, a skull might float, at least until the soil dissolved.

Yes they do float in water because at first they float and then they sink because they are kind of hollow so the water fills it up and soon enough it sinks.

Most fossils are part of the rock in which they are found and, as such, are heavy but some fossil wood such as Jet is very light and will float in water.
