Ammonite-perhaps the most widely known fossil, ammonites lived in the ancient seas from 400 to 65 million years ago. Their name comes from the Greek God, Ammon, who had rams' horns on his head. They vary in size from a very large wheel to the quite small and diminutive.

 

This is one of two such fossils I found in a load of Limestone rock I am building a wall with.
