Abstract
Main articleOne kind of aepyornithoid and six kinds of struthious eggshells have been found in Cenozoic
deposits of Namibia. Field evidence indicates that the six struthious egg types are time successive,
and they thus form a useful basis for determining the relative stratigraphic positions of sites at
which they occur. Their placement in the geological time scale has been partly tied down by
reference to the biostratigraphic position of mammals that occur in association with them.Non
