astron Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 This is a very nice association Hello, Chas and all. Thanks, Chas, for the comment Just two posts for today. First are two unknown foliages (pics 1 and 2) and a plate with mainly poaceae leaves fragments (part and counterpart). Astrinos P.

astron Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) And a strange addition to my collection. Are these two slabs part and counterpart? Rather the only indicating it clearly is the alike scheme of these slabs, but it actually is. The differences occur due to the fact that the great majority of the fossils on both parts were mostly hidden into the matrix and I have dug them up. So, a somehow representative icon of the local flora has come up. I see on it salix sp., ziziphus sp, laurus sp., quercus sp, dicotylophyllum leaves, poaceae fragments and some seeds.

Sinopaleus Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 so astrinos. there was once a beautiful garden. trees grew everywhere, and the ponds there held many fish. suddenly, a huge mudslide from a nearby mountain buries the eden completely! then one day, a bright man with the name of astrinos comes across the long lost garden! there he discovers wonderful remains from the eden of crete. then he brings back his treasures and shares it with his friends and his families, who are from all over the globe! sooner or later, that bright man would be known throughout the world as the lucky man who discovered the eden of crete. the end.
