Here is something you don\'t see every day - direct evidence of a Triassic forest fire in the form of charcoalified wood (yes, that is the technical term!).

This material is found at various levels throughout much of the Triassic deposits of New Mexico and Arizona, occuring in the Chinle, Bull Canyon and Garita Greek deposits to name but a few.

This is not modern wood that is simply a site contaminent, but comes out of the fossil layer and is often found in direct association with vertebrate remains - the images show the material in situ and how it weathers out of the ground among the bones.

Each offer is for ONE piece of material. It can be cut and polished and still shows internal structure.
