‘Bismillah’ found on 195 million-year-old marble discovered in Turkey

The marking that appears to form ‘Bismillah’ was found on a marble slab in a quarry in Turkey’s Mediterranean province of Antalya. The figure that appeared on the stone attracted attention of miners while the stone was being processed. While 195 million years old remains were found in the content of the marble, the marking is believed to have occurred naturally.

Bioclastic remains of fossils belonging to sea creatures that lived 195 million years ago during the Jurassic dinosaurs period were found on dolomitic limestone that formed the plate.

The report said the figures on the plate with Bismillah were completely “natural” formations and the writings were formed as a result of the fragmentation, deformation and arrangement of the remains of heart-shaped shellfish over time.
