Mysterious symbols found near footprints shed light on ancient humans’ awareness of dinosaurs, scientists say
The species is known mainly from a single skull, plus a few extremely thick skull roofs (at 22 cm or 9 in thick). More complete fossils would come to be found in the following years. Pachycephalosaurus was among the last species of non-avian dinosaurs on Earth before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
The dinosaur lived 150 million years ago in the late Jurassic period, making it millions of years older than the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex that roamed the Earth some 66 million to 68 million ...
