Titanosaur Sauropod Eggshell (France)

A small fragment of eggshell from a Late Cretaceous sauropod dinosaur. The eggshell you receive will look similar to those pictured.

The geological formation where this eggshell was found, the Begudian Formation, located in the Aix-en-Provence Basin near Puyloubier, France, dates to the Late Cretaceous and consists of continental deposits like sandstones, mudstones, and limestones. It formed in a fluvial or lacustrine environment, ideal for preserving dinosaur fossils, including sauropod eggshells such as those of titanosaurs, which are commonly found in this region. The formation has yielded significant finds, including eggshells, bones, and footprints, providing insights into the nesting behaviors and diversity of sauropods in what was a warm, semi-arid floodplain. It’s part of a broader sequence of dinosaur-bearing strata in Provence.

Each eggshell comes stored in a display box featuring the specimen name, region it was found, age and a QR code linking to some information about dinosaur eggs (the fossil can be removed from the box).

This is genuine fossil. All the specimens we offer come with a lifetime authenticity guarantee.
