Perisphinctes Ammonite
Discover the wonder of deep time with this captivating Perisphinctes ammonite from Madagascar's Jurassic period. Ammonites are beloved by fossil enthusiasts everywhere for their mesmerizing ribbed spirals and remarkable preservation. These ancient marine creatures thrived in Earth's oceans for nearly 175 million years, from 240 to 65 million years ago, before disappearing alongside the dinosaurs. As cephalopods, they're distant relatives of today's octopuses, squids, cuttlefish, and nautiluses—intelligent, graceful hunters that mastered ancient seas. Their name honors Ammon, the Egyptian god whose curved horns echo the ammonite's elegant coiled form. At 96mm, this specimen captures the beauty and mystery of prehistoric life, making it a meaningful addition to any collection. Includes certificate of authenticity.
