Ankylosaurus [nb 1] is a genus of armored dinosaur. Its fossils have been found in geological formations dating to the very end of the Cretaceous Period, about 68–66 million years ago, in western North America, making it among the last of the non-avian dinosaurs. It was named by Barnum Brown in 1908; it is monotypic, containing only A ...

They usually extend for large areas, and sometimes there are different important sites in which the same formation is exposed.
Archaeologists believe they may have discovered the final location of Noah’s Ark on Turkey’s Mount Ararat. Soil samples from atop the highest peaks in Turkey reveal human activity and marine ...
The site is apparently geologically unique in the Hawaiian Islands, comprising a sinkhole paleolake in a cave formed in eolianite limestone. The paleolake contains nearly 10,000 years of sedimentary record; since the discovery of Makauwahi as a fossil site, excavations have found pollen, seeds, diatoms, invertebrate shells, and Polynesian artifacts, as well as thousands of bird and fish bones.
