Description
Morocco's Sahara Desert was once underwater. It was during the Paleozoic Era's Devonian period, about 380 million years ago. Fossil of the fish, plants, and other ancient marine animals from this prehistoric life have been preserved in marble and limestone rocks, and some towns in that region of Morocco, like Erfoud, have factories that turn the fossilized rocks into beautiful pieces of decorative art and furniture. This image shows a small portion of a large slab of fossils embedded in polished marble.
