The search for mammal fossils began in 1979 after the discovery of several fragments of large bones made by F. Sirrugue, from the Museum of Aix-en-Provence.
The bones were from an Anthracotherium (an animal resembling a large pig or hippopotamus).
The fragments were taken to the Paleontology laboratory at the University of Montpellier II where a study was carried out in 1994.

Bones and dentine of mammals are white, but enamel is light brown with fl dendrites.
The biochronologic age of the fauna is determined by the presence of significant mammalian taxa (Table 1, Figure 4,Figure 5), especially the rodents Eucricetodon, Paracricetodon, Pseudocricetodon, Eomys, Plesispermophilus, Palaeosciurus, Suevosciurus, and the artiodactyls Gelocus, Entelodon, Lophiomeryx, Anthracotherium, and Elomeryx.
This assemblage indicates an age in the mammalian Paleogene zone MP 21.

The mammalian land-fauna of Europe made striking advances, and assumed a decidedly African aspect.
Marsupials had disappeared from it before the Burdigalian period, during which primitive genera like Palaeochoerus, Hyopotamus, and the hornless ruminants Anthracotherium and Brachyopus, became extinct, while proboscideans (Mastodon, Dinotherium), rhinoceros and apes (Oreopithecus, Pliopithecus) came in, followed by antelopes, beavers and probably Machaerodus in the Vindobonian.
The spread of turf-forming grasses was succeeded in the Pontian by an enormous increase of herbivorous mammals, including Hip parion and horned ruminants (Helladotherium, Antilope, Cervus, Camelopardalis, Palaeotragus), whose migrations were facilitated by the desiccation of the Medi terranean basin.

 Vestiges- chapter 10
The term has been given by Cuvier to an order in which the hog, elephant, horse and rhinoceros are included.
character approximating to the South American tapir: the names, palacotherium, anthracotherium, anoplotherium, lophiodon, andc., have been applied to them with a consideration of more or less conspicuous peculiarities; but a description of the first may give some general idea of the whole.
It was about the size of a horse, but more squat and clumsy, and with a heavier head, and a lower jaw shorter than the upper; the feet, also, instead of hooves, presented three large toes, rounded, and unprovided with claws.

 Essence of the Human Soul - Book 4
The fact that material substance, fertilised in this way, can be organised by the living principle into various forms according to circumstances, is not materialism.
When Cuvier studied fossil bones, he found many kinds of animals that had completely disappeared (the palaeotherium, anoplotherium, anthracotherium, plesiosaurus, megalosaurus, pterodactyl, ichthyosaurus, etc.).
Evidently, the temperature of the globe, the fecundity of the earth and circumstances influencing organisation must have differed from those of today.
