Around 390 million years ago, the trilobite species known as Erbenochile erbeni roamed the ocean floors. Trilobites were one of the most diverse groups of marine arthropods to ever live, and one of the first animals to develop complex eyesight. Erbenochile is a distinct example with its tower-eyes and 360-degree view radius. This specimen was intricately prepared using air scribes and specialized sandblasters in order to carefully remove all the surrounding rock and preserve the detailed spines
