Cruziana Trilobite Trackway

Description: Cruziana are fascinating accompaniments to any trilobite collection. They are visual representations of a frozen in stone moment of the trilobite crawling through the muddy sea bottom sediments. This plate shows remarkable detail of the legs pushing the mud up and away and leaving an identifiable pattern, much like the tracks from a tire left on a snowy road. This plate shows one primary track way crossing the muddy sea floor bottom. The track way veers slightly to the left, showing excellent detail of the trilobite’s locomotion.
