The image displays a fossil exhibit within the Regional Historical Museum in Asenovgrad, Bulgaria. The central focus is a collection of light-colored, fossilized bones, identified by a label as "aff. Ancylotherium pentelicum Gaudry et Iartet." These bones, described as "bones from the foot - phalanges, incl. claw and metapodial bones," are arranged on a light grey rectangular mat. They were discovered at the Hadzhidimovo-Giryazite locality and date to the Meotian-Pontian age. To the right of these foot bones are three additional, larger, and more robust light-colored bone fragments. The exhibit includes an informational placard partially visible on the right, titled "ТАПИРИ" (TAPIRS) in Bulgarian, and another smaller, partially obscured label on the left. The artifacts are presented within a glass display case, featuring a cream-colored base and dark framing along the top and bottom edges. The scene is illuminated by an internal light source, and no individuals are present.
