Vor rund zweihundert Millionen Jahren, am Ende der Trias, war die Zeit der Dinosaurier. Auch in Deutschland wurden zahlreiche Dinosaurier aus der Trias entdeckt. Eine der bekanntesten und ergiebigsten Fundstellen ist Trossingen in Baden-Württemberg, wo man Dutzende von Skelettresten des bis zu 10 Meter langen Dinosauriers Plateosaurus barg. In Württemberg und Thüringen sind auch bis zu 3 Meter hohe und mehr als 5 Meter lange Raub-Dinosaurier der Gattung Halticosaurus nachgewiesen.
Kupferzell im Hohenloher Land in Baden-Württemberg gilt als Massengrab fossiler Saurier. Dort kamen Reste von Sumpfbewohnern wie Mastodonsaurus und Plagiosaurus zusammen mit Meeresreptilien der Gattung Nothosaurus, verschiedenen Fischen sowie an Land lebenden Reptilien zum Vorschein. Der mehr als 4 Meter lange Mastodonsaurus gilt als einer der größten Lurche der Erdgeschichte.
Am Ende der Trias war auch die Zeit, in der der Superkontinent Pangea" auseinanderbrach. Der Superkontinent Pangäa, der fast die gesamte Landmasse enthielt, spannte sich vom Nordpol bis zum Südpol und ermöglichte so die uneingeschränkte Verbreitung der Landtiere.

Das Klima der Trias war warm bis heiß. Europa lag im subtropischen Wüstenbereich. Aber auch weltweit scheint das Klima eher trocken gewesen zu sein: Der Grund lag in der Form des Superkontinentes Pangäa und einem daraus resultierenden Monsuneffekt, bei dem die sommerlichen Tiefdruckgebiete uber der Landmasse hauptsächlich Luft von anderen inneren Landesteilen ansaugten und nicht vom Ozean, ähnlich der heutigen Situation in Südarabien. Im Binnenland waren vermutlich ausgedehnte Wüsten vorhanden. In der Nähe des geographischen Nordpols befand sich nach den derzeitigen Rekonstruktionen ein Teil Ostsibiriens"

Ammonite limestone protection symbol, Ø: approx. 5,51 inch (14 cm)
The ammonites were a sub-group of cephalopods - there must have been around 30,000 to 40,000 species. The size of the animals was usually in the range of 0,39 inch (1cm) to 11,81 inch (30 cm). There were also exceptions, for example in 1895 a 70,87 inch (180 cm) ammonite was found in a quarry near Seppenrode (region of southern Westphalia in Germany).Ammonites first lived about 570 million years ago in the Lower Devonian until the Cretaceous period about 70 million years ago, then died out together with the dinosaurs.The ammonites were assigned a mystical role in different cultures of the old and new world. In the German-speaking culture, ammonites were placed in the milking bucket to promote milk production, or they were installed in the roof ridge to protect against lightning. As good luck and protection, ammonites were also attached or walled in over entrance doors.Water is an element of life. Ammonites that have been walled / embedded in wells also indicate that the fossilized fossil should protect against harmful influences and that the source should be kept dry.The ammonite is also called the snake stone. It is still used as a healing stone today.

fossilized trilobite on native rock / mother rock
Trilobites (from the Greek three-lapper) were structured animals, which existed from the Cambrian to the end of the Permian until about 250 million years ago in the primeval seas of the planet Earth.They had a calcitic exoskeleton (especially the spine). They died out before the dinosaurs conquered the earth, and are now guide fossils for the Paleozoic Era.The trilobites were among the first arthropods, an animal trunk of hard-shelled creatures with an articulated body and many coordinated legs (which, together with the antennae of the animals, have unfortunately almost never been preserved in fossil form due to their nature). They form the extinct class of the Trilobita, consisting of nine recognized orders today - over 150 families, over 5,000 genera and more than 15,000 described species. New species are found and identified every year. Their diversity makes the trilobites the most divergent group among all extinct organisms. Joachim Barrande did well for her early research.Approx. 200 million years old, each piece is unique - no fossil is the same!1,58 x 1,97 inch (40-50 mm) mother stone - the fossil itself measures approx. 0,79  x  0,98 inch (20 - 25 mm)!Weight: approx. 1,76 - 4,23 oz (50 - 120 g)Price per piece!
