Fossils are the remains of long gone animals and plants. Formerly they were also called "petrefacts", but no one use this term anymore. The word "fossil" comes from the Latin word fossils, which could be translated as "dig out" or "excavate".

Beside the importance to science fossils are popular by collectors as well as by laymen. Every fossils is a one-of-a-kind piece of nature and therefore unique. Fossils, like a polished ammonite, a cut belemnite or a trilobite are also just stunning to look at. Some people also believe that fossils have some esoteric power, but there is no scientific evidence for this.
