Inzigkofen is a municipality in the district of Sigmaringen in Baden-Württemberg in Germany. Historically, it is part of the Swabian north Alpine foreland basin.^[3]

It consists of three districts:

Coat of Arms	District (Teilort)	Population[4]	Area[4]
	Inzigkofen with Nickhof und Pault	1372	931 hectares (2,300 acres)
	Engelswies	611	749 hectares (1,850 acres)
	Vilsingen with Dietfurt	845	1,196 hectares (2,960 acres)

Within Engelswies is the now-abandoned Talsberg quarry, known for its fossiliferous layers, and the site of evidence of the oldest Eurasian hominoids; a molar tooth found there in June 1973 was reported in June 2011 to have been "dated with relative precision at 17 to 17.1 Ma" (million years ago).^[3]
