The researcher Abbas Haddadin discovered three types of Virgin larvae and a whole insect in gypsum in Almojeb area south of Jordan dating back to the second geological time of the Upper Cretaceous, gypsum is calcium sulfate, which is one of the rocks that formed in water, especially in swamps, the water evaporates leaving calcium sulfate in the form of transparent crystals called gypsum in the swamp of Almojeb lived insect larvae with some aquatic insects when the marsh water evaporates, the gypsum crystals remain inside, and the insect larvae that used to live in the water swamp, the bacteria could not decompose these larvae because gypsum is a preservative that kills bacteria, so the larvae and insects remained the same and did not decompose, as we see in the attached picture, this area where the larvae found a known area and a specific age from 90 million sea urchins in previous studies a wing of a grass Hopper was found in gypsum in 1910-1915 in Australia in the state of Queensland and was written about by R.J.Tillyard and his colleagues also wrote about this wing in 1922, Tony Forsyth titled The Wing of an insect in gypsum, and they also found a larva of atmospheric tremor in gypsum crystals in northern Italy dating back 23 million years ago, and two scientists wrote about it in 2001, Rolf schlater and the scientist Kokring Thomas, this is only what they found in gypsum in the world, in addition to the four insects of the researcher Abbas Haddadin, which he discovered in gypsum in the Almojeb area.
