What Are Ammonites? 

Ammonites are a group of extinct molluscs which somewhat resembled a shelled squid when they were alive. 

These ancient sea creatures had tentacles like the modern octopus, and spiral shells like Nautilus creatures. 

They first appeared on the fossil record 240 million years ago, in the Triassic Period, and died out 65 million years ago with the dinosaurs during the Cretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction Event. 

The fossilised remains of these sea creatures are perhaps the most popular fossils on the market today.
