Description: This is four belemnite fossils set in rock, dating back to the Jurassic and Cretaceous Period (65 million years ago to 200 million years ago). They became extinct 65 million years ago at the same time of the dinosaurs. It is an interesting talking point for shelf interest and is also handy as a paperweight. *** Watched the film Ammonite recently and discovered a link with belemnite fossils. The squid-like belemnite carried ink sacks which could be ground down and added to water to use as ink. A friend of Mary Anning, the acclaimed early 19th century fossil hunter and palaeontologist, discovered the ink sack usage and it was widely used in Lyme Regis where they lived on the Jurassic coast in Dorset.
