"Trilobites are among the most interesting and scientifically important of all prehistoric animals... As fossils, trilobites posses an almost unrivalled ability to fascinate. Their symmetrical forms and elegant simplicity-and occasionally baroque ornamentation- combine with the pleasing rhythms of their segmentation to captivate and delight the eye."- Jasper Burns
