North Carolina State Capitol

Did you know that North Carolina has a state fossil? It's the Megalodon tooth! Megalodon means "big tooth" and is an extinct species of shark that lived approximately 23 to 2.6 million years ago.

Want to see a Megalodon tooth? The NC Fossil Club will be at Meet Your State Symbols! this Saturday from 10-2 and they are bringing our state fossil!

For more info on the Megalodon shark, it's teeth, and how it became our state fossil, check out this article from the NCpedia: www.ncpedia.org/symbols/fossil.
