Natural history museum relic (6)

I believe the answer is:

fossil

(Other definitions for fossil that I've seen before include "Ancient remains embedded in rock" , "Ancient remnant hardened in rock" , "Lasting impression" , "old boy?" , "Preserved trace of an ancient plant or animal" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
