AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From the depths of the rich geological formation of the Kem Kem Valley, this partial rib emerges, possibly belonging to a Spinosaurus or Carcharodontosaurus, two of the most formidable predators of the Cretaceous. Measuring 11cm in length, this piece is a high-quality relic, extremely rare and coveted, perfect for exclusive collections and paleontological exhibits.

A Fragment of Power: With a length of 11cm, this rib reflects the imposing structure of the carnivorous giants that ruled ancient ecosystems.

Connection with the Predators of the Past: The possibility that it belongs to a Spinosaur, known for its distinctive dorsal sail, or a Carcharodontosaurus, famous for its fierce jaw, adds a special appeal.

Legendary Origin: From the Kem Kem Valley, a region rich in dinosaur fossils of carnivorous species and of worldwide paleontological importance.

Rarity and Singularity: The partial ribs of these dinosaurs are extremely difficult to obtain, adding prestige and exclusivity to any collection.

More than just a fossil, this partial rib is an encapsulated fragment of history, a bridge between the present and the prehistoric world. Perfect for collectors and exhibits seeking to convey the vastness and mystery of the past.
