History
Ammonites and Orthoceras are extinct members of the Cephalopod class.
Modern members include nautilus, squid and octopus.
They first appeared during the Silurian Period (435 million to 410 million years ago) and were abundant and widespread in the seas of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods (175 million to 65 million years ago).  Ammonites are important
index fossils;
they often link the rock layer in which they are found to specific geological time periods.
Note: Our photos are taken with a Panasonic DMC-TZ5 Lumix camera under halogen lighting (in most cases). We do our best to get a true representation of our stones. Sometimes because of enlarging the photo, or because of different settings on individual monitors there are variations in color.
