Fossil Hero ✨ [Ammonite] - German Fossil A30 Thank you for viewing!・゜✧ This is the super famous fossil, the [Ammonite], which is not an exaggeration to call a hero ✨ 'Features' Ammonites are mollusks, relatives of snails, nautilus, squid, and octopus. They are also creatures that evolved from the nautilus family. They appeared in the Devonian period (about 400 million years ago) and were a representative species that thrived in oceans around the world until they became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period (about 66 million years ago). They are characterized by their spiral-shaped shells. The shells are divided into many small chambers in the back. On the other hand, the shells of snails, such as land snails, do not have partitions inside and consist of a single chamber. Among ammonites, there are some that have shells with slightly unusual shapes, different from the ordinary "spiral." These ammonites with unusual shapes are collectively called "heteromorphic ammonites," and each has a scientific name as a biological species. The name "ammonite" is a combination of "Ammon" and "-ite," which indicates stone. Please check the photos. Please see photos 3-7 for the size.
