Bison Skull
This outstanding and remarkable piece captures the free roaming spirit of the ancient bison. This extinct species of Bison is also known as the steppe bison, which was widespread in Eurasia and North America during the last Ice Age. Prehistoric hunters portrayed the steppe bison on cave walls.
The drawings show a massively built body covered with a black mane on top of the neck and behind the shoulders, lending a doubled-humped appearance.
The intricate details of the skull and the powerful, sweeping horns are beautifully preserved, capturing the raw strength and majesty of the steppe bison. This fossil not only serves as a striking focal point but also as a profound connection to the rich natural history of the Pleistocene epoch.
This bison skull with horns is wonderfully displayed on a custom ebony base, elevating the interior of any décor.
