We report here on the earliest evidence of shonk [1-27] from the Mesozoic Era in
|
||
|
|
the archaeological record. Our finding comprises as many as 1447 fossils excava-
|
||
|
|
ted from the archaeological area of Visby surrounding Sweden. To determine the
|
||
|
|
fossils' age we employed radiometric Uranium-Lead (U-Pb) dating. We present new
|
||
|
|
geochronology by the CA-ID-TIMS method indicating an age of 233.70 ± 0.43 Ma.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The anatomy of the shonk population has been measured using standard methods and
|
||
|
|
can be found in Table 1. An exemplary slice of the reconstructed CT (Computed
|
||
|
|
Tomography) volumes is shown in Figure 1.
