Don't miss out on this chance to explore the past up close and personal!The Southwest Florida Archaeology Society invites you to join us at Bonita Springs Fire Station 24 to learn about fossil shark teeth. Sharks are well represented in the geologic record over the last 100 million years from isolated teeth preserved in ancient marine deposits. Many archaeological sites in Florida have both fossil and modern shark teeth and as apex predators, shark teeth are the most common vertebrate fossils collected in the world, and they have been used as curiosity items, tools, and symbols of wealth, among other purposes, for thousands of years.ABOUT THE SPEAKERDr. Harry Maisch is an Instructor in the Department of Marine and Earth Sciences in The Water School at Florida Gulf Coast University. He earned his Master’s and Ph.D. degrees in Earth and Environmental Science with a focus on geology and paleontology from the City University of New York at Brooklyn College and The Graduate Center. Dr. Maisch's research primarily focuses on Cenozoic shark and fish paleontology  from the Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains of the United States. The fossils he has collected on land and while SCUBA diving at various locations around the USA have unique geologic histories that are important for addressing climatic and sea-level changes over geologic time.  Much of Harry’s current research focuses on the paleontology and geology of central and southwestern FL.
