EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Ammonite memorial stone, a true testament to the ancient wonders of our natural world. Crafted from a slab of marble, this stunning piece contains a mesmerizing array of Ammonite fossils. The larger ammonites featured here are known as Asteroceras marstonense, while the smaller ones are identified as Promicroceras marstonensis. Ammonites were remarkable marine invertebrates that graced our oceans for over 400 million years. However, their reign came to an end approximately 65 million years ago during the Cretaceous period. This particular specimen was discovered in Lower Lias near Yeovil, Somerset in the United Kingdom. The polished side of this memorial stone reveals even more intricate details and serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship involved in its creation (see C013/6641). As you gaze upon this fossilized treasure against a striking black background, you can't help but marvel at the beauty and complexity of these long-extinct creatures. With its rich geological history and zoological significance, this photograph not only captures nature's artistry but also offers us insight into Earth's prehistoric past. It reminds us that life has evolved and thrived on our planet for countless millennia before us. Displayed proudly by the Natural History Museum in London through Science Photo Library, this image invites viewers to appreciate both the delicate beauty of ammonite fossils and their importance within paleontological research.
