As long as you identify it a little, you will know that this is not a stone. As long as it is not a stone, it is a fossil. And for such a large egg, plus the soil layer from which it was unearthed, it is most likely a dinosaur egg fossil. I just don’t know about these dinosaurs.
What kind of dinosaur eggs are egg fossils?
At last count, there are more than 40 crystal dinosaur egg fossils in this nest. Together with other discoveries, there are now almost a hundred dinosaur egg fossils.
In the next few days, as more and more students participated in the excavation, more and more discoveries were made, and everything was discovered.
The more he discovers, the more people he attracts, but Han Peacock never refuses anyone who comes. He has already begun to let engineering teams enter the site to build various museums in the area he has planned.
Each museum is small and dotted among the mountains, jungles and swamps, but there are so many of them.
The more people are attracted, the progress of the excavation will continue to accelerate, and the faster the speed, the more fossils of various types will be discovered. The more fossils discovered, the greater the sensation and the higher the popularity, and the more people will be attracted.
More.
Just like this virtuous cycle, at this time, the entire northern part of the Golden Bull Ranch and the southern part of Lake Superior were already busy with people coming and going.
Archeology professors, students, construction workers, TV reporters, etc. are all crowded here.
This naturally brought more tourists. In order to prevent accidents, Han Peacock hired more security guards.
Only when hundreds of security guards patrolled and guarded the entire archaeological site did the order here settle down.
At this time, Han Kongque's act had not only alarmed the local authorities, but also the state government and the White House.
Because there are so many fossils found here, and the types are so rich, it is so inspiring to Americans.
The economy has been sluggish in the past few years. The domestic economy in the United States has grown, and a large part of the tourists come from abroad. Now that another tourist attraction has appeared, Americans are naturally happy. Of course, the happiest thing is the local government.
The United States has a vast territory and a small population, so there are certain constraints on economic development. But with more people and good employment arrangements, there will be no problems with economic development.
When others were happy, Han Kongque was naturally even happier. He really didn't expect that this archaeological excavation would cause such a big commotion.
Cao Meili was very happy to see Han Peacock, but Han Peacock was a little strange. Recently, many of Cao Meili's jobs have been taken away by some old experts and professors. Shouldn't she be feeling depressed?
"Why are you so happy? Have you made a new discovery?" Han Peacock said with a smile.
Cao Meili said with some pride: "Of course I have discovered something. I have proven that the giant turtle I discovered is a tropical turtle fossil. This place was once a tropical area in ancient times."
Han Peacock was stunned. This discovery is really interesting. A rare tropical sea turtle fossil was found here. This discovery confirmed that for tens of millions of years, the temperature here was indeed relatively high, so Titanoboa could survive here.
"This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this kind of tropical sea turtle has also been found in the Arctic. What does this mean? This fossil reveals that tropical sea turtles have traveled along the Arctic to North America for a warm living environment.
The process of migration of lakes and rivers to warm tropical areas." Cao Meili was even more interested when talking about this.
"Don't confuse the concepts. The tropical sea turtles found in the Arctic are different from this one. They are different species, but they are all tropical sea turtles." At this time, the old man beside Cao Meili spoke.
Cao Meili smiled and said: "Of course I know that although the Arctic sea turtle fossils are quite well preserved, the turtle shell is not very big. It is only 30 centimeters wide. That kind of turtle belongs to the great white sea turtle, and researchers call it a turtle.
Ge.
Ugo is a tropical turtle that is only suitable for growing in warm areas. The current cold Arctic is completely unsuitable for this turtle to grow. However, during the Cretaceous Period 95 million years ago, the Arctic was as warm as a greenhouse. This
The fossils not only show new migration routes of ancient sea turtles, but also indicate that these migrations can be traced back more than 80 million years ago."
The Arctic tropical sea turtle fossil Cao Meili talked about was a tropical sea turtle fossil discovered in the Axel Heiberg Island area in the Arctic by the University of Rochester expedition team in 2006.
The island is full of vertebrate fossils, including turtle fossils, crocodile fossils, fish fossils and all kinds of other strange things.
"Where is that crocodile? The age has been determined?" Han Kongque asked when he saw the old man beside Cao Meili kept laughing.
This old man is Cao Meili's grandfather, Cao Shanghai. The old man said with a smile: "It has been confirmed that the crocodile is a tropical creature from 200 million years ago. This is of great research value for the evolution of ancient creatures."
Fossils are the remains of ancient organisms that have remained in the earth's crust for hundreds of millions of years. By analyzing various fossils, scientists can infer changes in the natural environment in ancient times and the evolutionary history of organisms. In a sense, fossils are a record.
A history book of the continuous evolution of life on Earth for hundreds of millions of years.
"Crocodile fossils from 250 million years ago." Cao Meili also said with a smile.
Now they have determined that the giant crocodile discovered on the first day was an ancient amphibian fossil dating back 250 million years.
"These crocodile-like fossils reveal two new types of ancient amphibians. The skull fossils of these ancient crocodiles show that they were similar to other species that lived in the Permian Period between 290 million and 248 million years ago.
No animal is the same.
They belong to a group of animals that were previously thought to have become extinct long ago. This alone can prove the interaction between climate and the evolution of life on land. About 250 million years ago, many land plates on the earth merged.
Together, they formed a huge landmass called Pangea.
We once thought that animals of the same type as the amphibians discovered this time already existed at that time and were widely distributed on this continent, but the newly discovered fossils this time are completely different." Cao Shanghai said.
Seeing Cao Shanghai talking incessantly, Han Kongque could only smile bitterly. He did not dare to get excited about this.
Perhaps after seeing Han Peacock's performance, Cao Meili interrupted her grandfather and said, "Tell me something that interests you. This time we also discovered ancient human fossils from 18,000 years ago. They were found in a swamp over there.
, it should have been preserved due to an accident and fell into the swamp, similar to the domestic Yellow River elephant fossils."
"Yes, you young people must be more interested in this. This excavation can be said to be an accident. Some workers followed Han Peacock's plan and wanted to build a small museum. Unexpectedly, during the excavation process, they discovered a
Fossilized human skeleton." Cao Shanghai became even more excited when he talked about this.
After listening for a while, Han Kongque also understood. When human bones were first discovered, the workers thought they had seen a murder scene, but the most people here were archaeologists. They recognized it just at a casual glance. It was actually a human body.
Bone fossils.
This almost complete female skeleton is only about one meter tall (as tall as a 3-year-old child), is about 30 years old, and has a human face.
This skeleton includes a skull, mandible, pelvis and leg bones. After identification, this skeleton is 18,000 years old. What does this mean? This means that there was human life here almost 20,000 years ago. It is
This area has provided evidence of human life.
In this way, the Pangea conjecture also indirectly proves that the American continent was likely to have human existence in ancient times.
Everyone has heard the legend of dwarves. The dwarfs in myths and legends are all soft and cute. So do dwarves really exist?
This really exists, not only in legends, but now, there are also many dwarves.
Archaeologists have traveled all over the world and found many dwarf tribes.
The results of the study of fossils show that although there are certain differences in the heights of human ancestors in different periods, the existence of dwarfs has never been truly proven. That is to say, such a dwarf race has not been discovered in ancient times. This time it is still the case.
First discovered on the American continent.
In addition to the American continent, evidence of the existence of dwarfs has also been found in the jungles of Southeast Asia.
Of course, there are still "dwarves" on the earth today, and there are quite a few of them.
Of course, Africa has the largest number of dwarves, so the dwarves here are likely to have immigrated from Africa.
Because there are ancient legends from various countries that a great flood once occurred in ancient times. This is included in the legends of various ancient civilizations, so that time should have occurred in the Pan-Ancient Continent era.
This is the ancient era of destruction. During that period, humans who originally lived in Africa moved to various parts of the world. The current human races around the world are almost all descendants of the survivors of that time.
To this day, in the tropical forests along the Congo River in Africa, there is still a group of people living with an average distance of only about 1.3 meters, namely the Pygmies. They rely on hunting and gathering for a living and are in a relatively primitive state.
Today, Pygmies generally refer to adults of all races whose average height is less than 150 cm or 155 cm.
Pygmies are mainly distributed in central Africa, as well as the Andaman Islands, the Malay Peninsula, the Philippines and certain islands in Oceania in Asia.
The house they live in is only more than 1 meter high. The roof of the house is covered with leaves and the floor is covered with banana leaves. The Pygmies regard the forest as their "universal parent".
They are not allowed to cut down growing trees. The dry branches can be used for heating or cooking. However, the strange thing is that the Pygmies mature when they are 8 years old and can get married (~^~) For mobile phone users, please visit http
