Miocene_Mason Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Yep, orthoconic nautiloid. Swatara Creek can be Devonian or Ordovician in age depending on where you are (though theoretically the river could carry both to any location). “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ftank28 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Thank you I just looked into that pretty awesome seems to be more common than I would imagine but still feels amazing to find remains of something that lived that long ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
