Description
**Originally Listed At $300**
Ancient Seas, ca. 521 to 252 million years ago. A pair of trilobites, each preserved in matrix, with excellent detail remaining, especially on the larger of the two. The trilobite (meaning three-lobes) was a marine arachnomorph arthropod that seems to have been one of the most ubiquitous animals from the Early Cambrian to the Late Permian, when they were killed during the mass extinction at the end of the Permian period. They had an easily fossilized exoskeleton, which you see clearly on both of these specimens. Size of largest: 7" L x 5.75" W x 2.5" H (17.8 cm x 14.6 cm x 6.4 cm)
Provenance: private Puglia collection, Florida, USA
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
