Dickinsonia costata from the Ediacaran fauna of Australia. Nobody is quite sure what this was, a jellyfish, a worm, a chordate ancestor, a mushroom, a lichen, a placozoan? Hypotheses abound...

Whatever it is, I included it in my human origins chart I'm making, on the possibility it is indeed a chordate ancestor.

It's a pretty shiny rock that was worth a lot of money to some early human :D Nice work with the colours and making them all pearly :)

It lived during the Cambrian period... way before early humans ever walked on earth...
