Geology and Paleontology Gallery

The Geology and Paleontology Gallery of National Museum Western Visayas features the geological history of Western Visayas. In this gallery, one will discover how geology crafted the region’s landscape and shaped the lands and lives of its inhabitants.

Geographical, topographical and climate changes that occurred in the last 250 million years resulted in the uniqueness of the present-day political region. But do you know that elephants and stegodonts once roamed Panay? Proof of which are the tooth fossils of these two megafauna found in the town of Cabatuan, Iloilo.

We would like to here it from you!
