COLLECTION OF FIVE JURASSIC BELEMNITES
  
190 million years old

Lower Lias
Charmouth, Dorset 

A collection of five belemnites from the Jurassic coast, all collected in the1960s. Some have been treated with a light lacquer.

Belemnites are extinct squid-like sea creatures that were common during the age of the dinosaurs, a period of the Earth's history when much of England was submerged beneath warm seas. Their bullet-shaped internal shell, called a guard, is all that remains of them.
