3 years, 5 months ago3 years, 5 months agoOk I’m convinced this is a fish but by family see it as sign of mild insanity. It is in Sarcen stone from southern England same stone as Stonehenge #fossil

If it was found in a chalk layer I would guess it is some type of urchin. Chalk is made up of a bunch of very small marine organisms called coccoliths and they preserve fossils really well!

Looks like a piece of ammonite or nautilus. The difference is in their chamber patters which I can not see from the image. A nautilus has straight lines like rings around it when are the chamber walls inside. An ammonite has a very intricate and squiggly pattern because it is much stronger than the straight line for living in deeper waters.

Ammonite. The pattern on the end indicates a complex suture pattern.
-
yes, pretty much seems to be an ammonite fragment
