Description
PAIR OF POLISHED COPROLITE SLICES
Sauropod
Jurassic
Morrison Formation, Utah
This is an adjacent pair of slices from a single large specimen of fossilized dinosaur feces, for its size presumably from a giant sauropod, laid over 145 million years ago. Coprolites can be useful in revealing the dietary habits of these long-vanished creatures, but polished on both sides as these cut faces are, they also make for fascinating and highly aesthetic display pieces, with cloudy blues and greens punctuated by spidery black veining and dramatic streaks of red, the exterior rind left naturally rough, and each measuring approximately 21 1/2 x 5 3/4 x 1/2 inches.
