Fossilized, say crossword clue
67 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 30, 2026 · 7 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Fossilized, say” is ANCIENT. It appears as 67 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 30, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Classical Symmetry” by Kathleen Diamantakis & Jeff Chen, and it fills 7 squares running left to right from row 15, column 9 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue gives an example and asks for the broader category it belongs to. The entry begins with A and ends with T, and contains 3 vowels and 4 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
