Collection: Ammonite
Ammonites are extinct marine mollusks that thrived in Earth's oceans from about 400 million years ago during the Devonian Period until their extinction around 66 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous Period. These fascinating creatures are closely related to modern cephalopods like squids and octopuses.
Ammonite fossils are characterized by their spiral shells, divided into chambers. These chambers were filled with gas or liquid, allowing ammonites to regulate buoyancy and move efficiently through the water. Their intricate shell patterns, often featuring ribbed or coiled designs, make them highly collectible and visually stunning.
Living primarily in shallow marine environments, ammonites were adept swimmers, using jet propulsion by expelling water from a siphon for movement. They were carnivorous and fed on small marine organisms, including crustaceans, plankton, and other tiny prey.
Today, ammonite fossils are found worldwide, with notable deposits in places like Madagascar, Canada, the United States, and Europe. These fossils offer a unique glimpse into prehistoric oceans and make remarkable additions to any collection.
