Sea Turtle History. The oldest fossils of turtles were found in Germany and date back 215 million years, during the Triassic period. 1 They are among the oldest fossils of four-legged animals and one of the Earthâs most ancient creatures. These ancestral turtles had completely formed shells and lived on land, in marshes.
The origin of sea turtles goes back to the Late Jurassic (150 million years ago) with genera such as Plesiochelys, from Europe. In Africa, the first marine turtle is Angolachelys, from the Turonian of Angola.
