100 million years old Cretaceous Age.

This Carpopenaeus specimen exemplifies exceptional Cretaceous paleontological preservation, embedded within authentic Lebanese limestone from approximately 100 million years ago. The fossil retains complete structural integrity with no restoration or artificial enhancement, allowing direct observation of intricate crustacean morphology. These renowned fossil deposits, documented historically by Herodotus as "fish in the stones," remain among the most prolific sources of Mesozoic marine fauna. The specimen's unmodified state provides invaluable scientific documentation of ancient decapod anatomy and taphonomic processes, rendering it a significant acquisition for discerning collectors and researchers.
