Hemisaurida Fish that lived from the Cretaceous period, 100 million years old
Lebanon’s Cretaceous limestone formations are a treasure trove of diverse ancient life, rivaling even the renowned Solnhofen deposits in Germany. These fossils, often matching the color of the surrounding limestone, come from the Sahel Alma, Hajoula, and Haqel sites, dating back about 100 million years to the Cenomanian Stage of the Middle Cretaceous. Celebrated for their exceptional fossil fish preservation, these deposits also offer an impressive variety of well-preserved invertebrates like shrimp and lobsters—making them an invaluable find for any serious collector.
