Paleontological and Paleobotanical Museum (Nostimo) teeth of a shark that was 20–25 m long, and a Late Pliocene (3.5 million years old) tooth of an "Anancus arvenensis", a mastodon, an ancient relative of the elephant, which has been recognised here for the first time in the wider area of Western Macedonia. The mastodon which lived in this area was about the same size as a modern elephant, but with longer tusks. Also displayed are some Neolithic tools (from the 4th millennium BC): a fishing weight, and a blade for harvesting crops.

Mastodon americanum"), which is one of the most widely distributed Pleistocene proboscideans in North America. "M. americanum" fossil sites range in time from the faunal stages of Blancan to Rancholabrean and in locations from as far north as Alaska, as far east as Florida, and as far south as the state of Puebla in central Mexico, with an isolated record from Honduras, probably reflecting the results of the maximum expansion achieved by the American mastodon during the Late Pleistocene. A few isolated reports tell of mastodons being found along the east coast up to the New England region, with high concentrations
