  1. From the album: MY FOSSIL Collection - Dpaul7

    Emmonsia Coral, a Colony Coral SITE LOCATION: Beachriver Formation of the Brownsport Formation along Hwy. 641 in Decatur Co., Tennessee TIME PERIOD: Silurian Period (ca 430 mission years old) Favositida is an extinct suborder of prehistoric corals in the order Tabulata. The tabulate corals, forming the order Tabulata, are an extinct form of coral. They are almost always colonial, forming colonies of individual hexagonal cells known as corallites defined by a skeleton of calcite, similar in appearance to a honeycomb. Adjacent cells are joined by small pores. Their distinguishing feature is their well-developed horizontal internal partitions (tabulae) within each cell, but reduced or absent vertical internal partitions (septae). They are usually smaller than rugose corals, but vary considerably in shape, from flat to conical to spherical. Around 300 species have been described. Among the most common tabulate corals in the fossil record are Aulopora, Favosites, Halysites, Heliolites, Pleurodictyum, Sarcinula and Syringopora. Tabulate corals with massive skeletons often contain endobiotic symbionts, such as cornulitids and Chaetosalpinx. Like rugose corals, they lived entirely during the Paleozoic, being found from the Ordovician to the Permian. With Stromatoporoidea and rugose corals, the tabulate corals are characteristic of the shallow waters of the Silurian and Devonian. Sea levels rose in the Devonian, and tabulate corals became much less common. They finally became extinct in the Permian–Triassic extinction event. Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Cnidaria Class: Anthozoa Order: †Tabulata Family: †Favositidae Genus: †Emmonsia

    Archaic era Mortar Stone

    From the album: Jerry's Really Old Stuff

    This mortar stone was found along the bank of the Tennessee River Perry County, TN during the early 1960s. It's about 12 inches wide and quiet heavy. The stone and type of water worn stone is not native to Perry County which is cut into deep limestone strata. The nearby Spring Creek site dates from early woodland to early Archaic. The type of stone is more common in the Smoky Mountains about 200 miles east. Native people at that time traveled around frequently sometimes long distances.

    A Perry County Trilobite

    From the album: Jerry's Really Old Stuff

    Trilobites are generally not rare but my brother and I spent our childhood in pursuit of the elusive triolobite. This was the best we did, a Silurian example about 2 1/2 inches long. It was found about 1962 or 63 when the route of highway 13 just south of Linden, TN was changed and a limestone bluff along the Buffalo River cut through. It proved to be a very good fossil site. Brachipods, coral, crinoids and pieces of trilobites were common in Perry County but a finding a complete example was rare indeed. My brother still owns this fossil, a source of Perry County nostalgia.

    Mississippi River Fossils

    From the album: Jerry's Really Old Stuff

    Fossils collected by Mr. Lea of Memphis along the Mississippi River during low water periods during the mid 1970s. After his death in 2013 my brother obtained these fossils and I donated them to the University of East Tennessee. They include a bear mandible, bison metatarsal, couple of pieces of mastodon bone plus various other Pleistocene era bone fragments. Some of these were probably found at the Richardson's Landing Pleistocene site on the Mississippi River Tipton County, TN.
