GEOLOGICAL

Ammonites were marine animals belonging to the phylum Mollusca and the class Cephalopoda. They had a ribbed spiral shell. Ammonites were close relatives of today’s cuttlefish, octopuses and squids. These spectacular looking marine animals thrived in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic Eras, which equates to approximately 408 to 65 million years ago.

Ammonites inhabited the planet for more than 300 million years – almost twice as long as dinosaurs – before disappearing in the mass extinction event more than 66 million years ago.
