Fossilised turtle shells plucked from a Polish rubbish dump have been judged to be the oldest and most complete palaeontologists have yet discovered.

Dating back 215million years, experts say the shells could provide invaluable clues in solving the riddle of the origin of this ancient reptile which is venerated by cultures across the globe.

'I'd say my guardian angel led me here,' said Tomasz Sulej, the palaeobiologist who made the discovery.
