Description from the seller
Scientific name: Spinosaurus aegyptiacus - Set of 2 Large Restored Teeth
Location: Taouz, South Morocco
Geological Formation: Ifezouane Fm - KemKem Red Sandstone Beds
Age: Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian stage ( 96 million years)
Size (The Biggest): 13,5 cm
Ref: S264
Observations: These are 2 teeth of large length. Truly huge specimens. However, they have several restorations along fractures they suffered during excavation. These restorations basically consist of filling the fractures. In this case, both are partially rooted and their root are authentic. The fractures have been glued and filled, but unlike other cases, the roots are real. About restorations and filled fractures: This is a typical technique used by local excavators to restore teeth. It's not a professional technique, and it leaves much to be desired. Whatever the case, they are a good authentic example of the amazing dentition of this huge piscivorous dinosaur that reigned during the Cretaceous period in the ecosystems of what is now North Africa.
