EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of fossil ammonites, specifically the Cadomites deslongchampsii species from the Lower Barremian period. These remarkable specimens, estimated to be around 130 to 125 million years old, were discovered in Bayeux, Calvados, France and are now housed at the Museum d'histoire naturelle in Toulouse. The intricate details of these ancient mollusks are beautifully captured by photographer Patrice Cartier. The vibrant colors and patterns on their shell coverings provide a glimpse into the rich diversity that once thrived in our prehistoric oceans. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at the wonders of natural history and how it connects us to a time long gone. Ammonites hold great significance not only for paleontologists but also for those interested in zoology and megalithic studies. Their existence offers valuable insights into the evolution of marine life during the Palaeolithic era. Additionally, these edible mollusks played an important role in ancient ecosystems as both prey and predators. Through this photograph, Cartier invites us to appreciate the beauty found within scientific exploration. It serves as a reminder that our world is filled with countless mysteries waiting to be unraveled through careful observation and study. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past as they inspire curiosity about our planet's history and ignite a passion for preserving its natural wonders for future generations.
