Description:
Stromatolites are stratified trace fossils of microbial life, primarily cyanobacteria. Some of them date back to a staggering 3.4 billion years ago, making them the oldest record of life on planet Earth.

These layers often form very beautiful and colorful banded structures in the rock.
