Ammonites are created through a process involving the fossilization of the remains of ancient marine cephalopods that lived during the Mesozoic Era. These creatures had spiral-shaped shells divided into chambers, which they used for buoyancy. After their death, their shells would settle on the ocean floor, where they could become buried by sediment. Over millions of years, the sediments compacted and mineralized the shells, turning them into fossils that we recognize today as ammonites.
