Fossilized animals

Fossilized animals

From Suara Karya

I found some fossils of marine animals but I knew nothing about them. I still have the fossils -- one a shell (bivalvia) and the other a tortoise of about the size of my palm.

I found the fossils near the Ogan river in Baturaja, South Sumatra. I am anxious to know about the nature of the fossils -- their age and other archeological data. In 1993, I put the fossils on display at a development exhibition held in Baturaja hoping that any of the visitors would be interested in making further research on the findings.

I no longer searched for more fossils because I was transferred to Bangka Island.
