This is a very fine example of an almost complete shell of a land tortoise, known as Protestudo hipparion, originating from Late Miocene deposits in Gansu Province, China.
The preservation is exceptionally good, both of the carapace and the plastron.
Land tortoises are rarely offered for sale, and few specimens are preserved in such excellent condition.
