Al Dente Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Hello gezgin Your echinoid fossil looks to be some type of Clypeaster. Here is a google search of Clypeaster - https://www.google.com/search?q=clypeaster&biw=1263&bih=798&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwit5aWg_-XMAhWJHD4KHRM8BC4Q_AUIBigB The area in your map is Neogene according to a bedrock map of Turkey-https://cografyabilim.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/tc3bcrkiye-jeoloji-haritasc4b1.jpg. The Neogene is from 2.5 million to 23 million years ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Have an idea of these stones sold From the Forum Rules and Community Standards: "Please understand that The Fossil Forum cannot appraise the commercial value of a fossil; this is beyond what can be done through pictures on the internet, so please don't ask."

tmaier Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 It is not as old as that volcano. Following up on Al Dente's lead that it is for the genus Clypeaster, I find that a common species of that area is Clypeaster scillae, and it resembles your specimen. That species is from the Miocene, about 5 to 20 million years ago. And I found another thread on Fossil Forum about that species, and it is from Turkey, also, very close to your region... http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/33706-clypeaster-turkey/ And the shell shown on the right is a scallop, mostly an internal cast, but with some of the shell material still on it. So your fossils are likely 5 to 20 million years old. Nice looking fossils. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspex Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 they disprove the theory of evolution How so? How do you draw that conclusion?

jpc Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 they disprove the theory of evolution Not in any way. Your fellow countryman, Hanrun Yahya has written a great big book that basically says that because some animals look just like fossils that this disproves evolution. His book is so incredibly wrong and badly written that it is laughable. Unfortunately I hear he has a pretty good following in Turkey. Please tell us how this fossil disproves evolution.
