Fossils

A collection of fossils from Missouri, from back when the region was a shallow sea. Long before our time, my friends. These were a gift from a friend who recommended they be boiled a long, long time before they’re ready.

I can’t get over the ones that look like liberty or Phrygian caps. You might be more familiar with those from the French Revolution, but Americans wore them first. Mineralization: turned to stone.
