Description

 A Large 11.8cm section of Dinosaur Bone Cretaceous

This large 11.8cm section of Dinosaur bone is from the Kem-Kem Beds in Morocco. There are several possible species of Dinosaur that this section of fossilised bone could have come from. We know that fossils here date back to the late Cretaceous period. Identifiable remains of at least for types theropod dinosaur have come from this area. The spinosaurus, deltadromeusor and also the sabre tooth carcharodontosaurus are strong possibilities. I’m afraid though we aren’t absolutely certain which one it is.

The Kem-Kem Beds are in an area close to the Moroccan, Algerian border. This area produces a variety of fossils that date back to the Cretaceous Period. This is one of the worlds principle locations for dinosaur fossils. Various types of large bodied carnivores including at least four types of theropods plus large bodied pterosaurs fossils have been found here. Fossils from this region are in important collections and museums all over the world.

Please note; as this piece of fossilised dinosaur bone is millions of years old some restoration work is inevitable. This is quite normal and does not detract from this highly collectable specimen whatsoever.
