Ammonites are the ancient equivalent to the modern-day chambered Nautilus. These fossilized Sea creatures come in a variety of forms depending on the soil in which they fossilized. 

The Blackfoot from North America called ammonites insikim or buffalo stones as they believed that they looked like sleeping bison. They could call out to be found in the prairies and were also used in spiritual ceremonies.
