The mollusks were preserved as casts and the urchins left behind fossil spines that are found in the middle part of the state. [7] Eocene life in Georgia included pectens, oysters, and a wide variety of microscopic life. Sea urchins continued to persist in the ...

Researchers have uncovered a "dinosaur highway" after hundreds of giant prehistoric footprints dating back 166 million years were found in an English quarry.
Fossils may be found either associated with a geological formation or at a single geographic site. Geological formations consist of rock that was deposited during a specific period of time. They usually extend for large areas, and sometimes there are different important sites in which the same formation is exposed.
The fossils were discovered in the mountains of northern Italy's Lombardy region after the snow and ice that once covered them melted away, scientists say, as a result of the ongoing climate crisis.
Hundreds of different dinosaur footprints dating back to the middle-Jurassic period, about 166 million years ago, have been uncovered in a quarry in England, in what scientists have described as a ...
