African Dinosaur Tooth Fossils
This will include all Dinosaurian teeth that have been found and identified as coming from North African (or any other part of Africa when those teeth are in stock). The most popular of these teeth has to be the large Sail back dinosaur called SPINOSAURUS sp. There is more than one page to this category so check them all out!
All the fossils on this page were bought in from my supplier in Morocco with added identification attached to them by a local paleontologist in the area.
Uncommon and sort after tooth fossil from a Sauropod species of dinosaur from the North African continent. Most have been very cleanly repaired (all teeth usually are from this location), but for teeth this old and hard to find, you have to expect that. You also sometimes get a bit of extra Sahara sand attached to the tooth as a bonus too - this is all natural - it can be cleaned off but it just adds authenticity to the tooth. Great for the collector on a tight budget, and even better for kids who want to start their collection of dinosaur fossils! These teeth had a sharp chisel like tip that was perfect for nipping off buds and twigs and leaves.
Found: South of Taouz, Moroccan Sahara. 100 Million Years old, Cretaceous age.
Rebbachisaurus was a sauropod of the superfamily Diplodocoidea up to 20 meters (68 ft) long and lived in the Late Cretaceous period about 99 million years ago. This massive four-legged plant-eating animal had a small head, a long, graceful neck and a whiplike tail. Rebbachisaurus is distinguished from other sauropods by its unusually tall, ridged back. It may have carried a sail or fin on its spine. The discovery of Rayososaurus, a South American sauropod nearly identical to Rebbachisaurus, supports the theory that there was still a land connection between Africa and South America during the Early Cretaceous, long after it was commonly thought the two continents had separated.

Comments: Identified by its chunkier triangular cross-section, that which the Carcharodontid teeth do not posess. TIP has not been replaced from another tooth - it had a coating of matrix on it when it arrived so once cleaned up the different coloured tooth enamel was shown hence the very slight colour - caused by minerals in the surrounding rock. All Original but the tip has had one very clean repair - not much to argue at this price!! Price: £89.99 w/P&P and Insurance Ref: Baharia03 |
