Ammonites were free swimmers and floaters. They used cavities in the shell for buoyancy. When they died, their shells sank to the sea floor where they preserved easily in the sediment. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir shells typically form into planispirals, which led to their nickname “snakestones” since they were once thought to be the remains of coiled snakes.
