Stegodon Trigonocephalus Fossil at Bandung Museum of Geology


This is another collection of Indonesia's ancient vertebrate fossil at Bandung Museum of Geology: Stegodon Trigonocephalus (ancient alephant). Stegodon Trigonocephalus roamed large parts of Asia during the Pleocene and Pleistocene Epoch about 11.6 until about 4.1 million years ago. It locally survived until the Holocene Epoch in the Indonesian archipelago.
