Monte San Nicola in Sicily, Italy, south of Butera in the province of Caltanissetta. The red line below the '5' on the rock marks the basis of the Gelasian (Lower Pleistocene) 2.58 million years ago. The Gelasian is a geologic age named after the nearby city of Gela in southern Sicily.
Monte San Nicola in Sicily, Italy, south of Butera in the province of Caltanissetta. The rocks seen here are of marine origin and date from the late Pliocene and Pleistocene.

“Sternberger Kuchen” (“Sternberg cake”), a large late Pleistocene glaciofluvial pebble of a highly fossiliferous, shallow marine sandstone of the North German Paleogene (Sülstorf beds, formerly known as “Sternberg rock”, Chattian, Oligocene, about 25 million years old).
