Hi, guys! It's been another long while since I entered a photo but this topic was easy for me since I have this guy sitting on a shelf, waiting to be photographed. Trilobites lived between about 250 and 500 million years ago so it is certainly a "Relic From The Past". It is a neat fossil since you can see the structure of its compound eye. I shot it sitting on a piece of black plexiglass. Hope you like it!

Gee, and I thought I was getting old. I hope I look that good when I'm 250 Million years old.

Very interesting piece, how special it must be to have.

I'm glad you like it, Rusty! If they find our fossils 250 million years from now, they will probably entirely misinterpret what sort of organisms we are.

Actually, Trilobite fossils are very common and you can get them very inexpensively on E-Bay or Amazon. They populated all the oceans for about 250 million years - plenty of time to deposit countless fossils for our amazement and enjoyment in the 21st Century.

All best wishes,

Endre
