Archaeoceratops cast skull
| Description: |
Archaeoceratops was an old member of the family of horned dinosaurs. Its name means "Ancient Horned Face". Archaeoceratops was found in China, and was much smaller then it's later cousins. There are still many questions about this dinosaur since what is known comes from two partial skeletons. In fact, it isn't known for sure what period Archaeoceratops came from. We do know that Archaeoceratops had a relatively short frill, the bony "crown" on the head of a dinosaur, but its skull was very large compared to the rest of its body. |
