It's a little town situated on Dorset's famous Jurassic Coast that has become a hub for fossil hunters and enthusiasts, with a museum and several fossil shops dotted around the town. Even the town's lamposts are shaped to look like ammonites! Why is Lyme Regis so associated with fossils? Part of the reason is in the town's history. Lyme Regis was the home of Mary Anning, one of the most famous names in the history of fossil collecting and paelaeontology. Back in the early 19th century, a time when very little scientific evidence existed to challenge the biblical creation theory, Mary Anning uncovered skeletons of huge, incredible sea creatures that could not be explained by traditional theories and ways of thinking. By the time Mary Anning died in 1847, she had contributed greatly to the establishment of paelaeontology and geology as proper scientific disciplines. However, the connection between Lyme Regis and fossils did not end there.lyme regis camping]]> lyme regis holiday park]]> jurassic coast]]> lyme regis holiday]]> dorset]]> dorset campsites]]> west dorset]]> weymouth]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Fossils-In-Lyme-Regis/2225928 Thu, 24 Mar 2011 12:29:54 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Fossils-In-Lyme-Regis/2225928 To some, a campsite is a place outside the general noise of the city and pollution where one can put up a tent, start a campfire and enjoy with family and friends.
