Perisphinctes Ammonite
Ammonites are perhaps the most well-known fossils, featuring the typical ribbed, spiral-shaped shell seen above. These creatures lived in the oceans from about 240 to 65 million years ago, when they went extinct along with the dinosaurs. The name 'ammonite' (usually lowercase) comes from the Greek Ram-horned god called Ammon. Ammonites are part of a group of predators called cephalopods, which includes their modern relatives—octopus, squid, cuttlefish, and nautilus.
