Scientific name: Spinosaurus aegyptiacus - Rooted Tooth Location: Taouz, South Morocco Geological Formation: Ifezouane Fm - KemKem Red Sandstone Beds Age: Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian stage ( 96 million years) Size: 10 cm Ref: S426 Observations: This is a quite good specimen. It is considerably large, and one of its most remarkable features is the preservation of part of its natural root. It is very common to find Spinosaurus teeth with many restored or even composite roots. In this case, the root is completely authentic. The crown of the tooth is also quite well preserved, with a beautiful enamel color. However, it has a fracture near the tip that has been glued and restored (filled). Regardless, this is a magnificent real-life example of the fearsome dentition of this fish-eating theropod dinosaur that ruled the river systems of North Africa during the mid-Cretaceous.
