Fossilized head of a stately sea turtle with large eye sockets and a gaping mouth, approx. 21 cm long, 19 cm wide and 10 cm high. The object dates from the Paleozoic Era (spanning the period from about 540 to about 250 million years). The preparation was carried out in Qued-Zem (Morocco), found at the mineral fair in Munich, by the local dealer Ennahi Ahmed, who spoke German remarkably well.
