Hand Carved Pointed Goniatite Dish With Stand
Ancient Marine Cephalopod Mass Burial Remains
Age:
Around 360 Million Years Old
Hand made dish with raised relief of a Goniatite Cephalopod.
Carved out of rocks that are around 360 million years old, the dish prominently displays a coiled Goniatite cephalopod in a fossil bed with many other coiled shelled cephalopods.
These creatures are ancient cousins of the modern day octopus, with stinging tentacles for catching prey, a strong beak-like mouth for crushing shells and the ability to squirt a strong jet of water from their mouths to propel themselves through the water.
Cephalopods are a long living and successful evolvment direction.
