Description
Sixty-six million years ago, a trip to Maastricht was enough for a tropical diving holiday. During the very last tail of the Cretaceous period there was a shallow sea with scattered coral banks. A wide variety of animals such as bryozoans, foraminifera and shells lived among the coral. Above it swam ammonites, sea turtles, sharks and large predatory mesh lizards. The accompanying hotel could have been located just across the border in the Ardennes, at the time a hilly country with semi-open coniferous forests. A safari to hadrosaurs, dinosaurs with huge duck beaks, would have been possible.
The title Uhu Valley (Eagle Owl Valley) in Maastricht points to the present name of the former marl stone mine pit and cement factory ENCI where the European horned eagle owl is master.
