A good representative of the genus Scyphocrinites (Family Scyphocrinitidae), magnificently preserved with its chalice and stem. Scyphocrinites was a cosmopolitan crinoid (sea lily). It has a chalice formed by numerous and starred plates. Its existence was widespread in the Upper Silurian and early Devonian. Sometimes they are found in mass associations and it is believed that they could have covered large territories. The area of the world famous Scyphocrinites crinoid deposits is located a few miles from Erfoud (Morocco), in the desert where lizards, snakes and many other creatures live, an inhospitable and arid place. The process to extract these pieces is very hard, laborious and carried out by hand with great risk for the excavator. The first step is to excavate a vertical well several meters deep until finding remains of the crinoids, once we reach the level, the excavation begins horizontally, until the plates are extracted that are later prepared and assembled for trade in the market of fossils of international collection. It is really impressive to see the whole process, how the Moroccans extract them from the earth and prepare them until they reach our museums and collections, they really are true treasures that must be valued
