A+ Grade End Chambered Ammonite from Majunga Madagascar measures 4.25 inches long, 3.75 inches wide, 4.25 inch high. The specimen in the images is what you will receive.
As ammonites grew, they added new living chambers to accommodate their growth in size. The chambers of Ammonites were separated by a tissue called septa. One can see the separations of the chambers by means of a complete wavy line called a “suture pattern”. The suture pattern is the line separating the septa and chambers and is visible underneath the animal’s aragonitic shell.
The ammonites are an extinct group of marine mollusks. They may have resembled a squid with an external coiled shell. The name is derived from Hammonis cornu (Latin, “the horns of Amun”), an Egyptian ram headed god. People in antiquity believed the spiral shaped fossils were his emblem. The ammonoids first appear in the fossil record during the Devonian Period (~419 million years ago) and went extinct with the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous Period (~66 million years ago).
It’s no surprise that ammonites, with their spiral shape, are symbols of change and positive motion. The spiral draws in negative energy, filtering it through the chambers and releasing fresh, positive energy.
