Left Township Fossil Museum

　　The Left Township Fossil Museum is situated in Tainan County, Taiwan Province, and primarily displays fossils from the Quaternary Pleistocene period around 1.6 million years ago, along with fossils of Taiwanese mammals found in the Cailiao Creek area. The fossil museum is a two-story building with green tiles and white walls, covering an area of 105 pyeong. Exhibits include the “Left Township Man” fossils from the same period as the Peking Man, an astonishing number of elephant fossils, as well as fossils of deer, rhinoceroses, the “four-not-alike” animal (Elasmotherium), crocodiles, sharks, mollusks, and more. There are also trace fossils such as footprints and nests, while foraminifera fossils require a magnifying glass to observe their fine details.
