Eocene horse jaw, teeth and bones

Here we offer a nice slab with many bones and teeth of the horse-ancestor Palaeotherium. The fossil was found in eocene sediments of St. Hippolyte, Ales/France.

The slab is original and unbroken. It measures about 26 x 22 cm and contains fantastic preserved teeth and bones. Some bones even are still articulated. You can see a jaw with several molars, one isolated incisor and some bones.

Fossilized horse-remainings are quite interesting since the evolution of horses is well known. Palaeotherium had three-toed feet and not like today\'s horses one single toe transformed into a hoof.

No glue, no restaurations - all is original!
