Regular price $ 262.00

  • two brass casts of genuine fossils - a trilobite on top with an ammonite below

Trilobites and ammonites are both index fossils, fossils that are used to identify different geologic periods. To be used as an index, a fossil has to be fairly common, have worldwide distribution, and have evolved different body shapes fairly quickly (geologically speaking).
