Mary Anning Story


Scylla

Recommended Posts

I was taught that "she sells sea shells by the seashore" was about Mary Anning, but apparently there is not any good evidence for this. There is good evidence she found and excavated the first complete ichthyosaur. She discovered the first Pterosaur and plesiosaur. A fossil hunting hero.

Arguably, Anning’s astounding ancient aquatic ammonites and artifacts aren’t anonymous anymore.

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
