April 2008 The area of the Petrified Forest of Anglona includes a fossilized forest dating from the period between the late Oligocene and Middle Miocene (30 to 15 million years ago). The whole area is heavily protected so it is forbidden to collect any type of material. Photo taken by Franco Lazzari.
