Discovering dinosaur horns 33,500 years old: Did humans live at the same time as dinosaurs?
The fossil record found in May 2012 challenged the notion that all dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago.
In May 2012, a fossil horn belonging to a triceratops triceratops was discovered in Dawson County, Montana, United States. Notably, after analyzing the carbon age of the horn, the researchers discovered this fossil specimen dating back nearly 34 thousand years ago.
This evidence challenges the notion that all dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago. 34 thousand years ago is also the time that mankind appeared and assembled into civilized tribes around the world. This finding raises many questions: Could humans have encountered or even lived with many giant reptiles?
The subjectivity of the old archaeological generation
Until recently, carbon-14 fossil dating technology has been widely used in archeology. However, older generation archaeologists have never thought of using Carbon-14 technology to check the dating of dinosaur fossils found previously.
The main reason comes from the obvious thought that dinosaurs went extinct tens of millions of years ago , while Carbon-14 technology only produced reliable results for fossils dating back 55 thousand years ago. .
This time, researchers in the field of anomalous science, with new evidence, stated: " By careful analysis and application of new technologies with valuable fossil evidence, we believe that that dinosaurs still had individuals who survived the catastrophe 65 million years ago . They were even able to maintain their race until 23,000 years ago . "
The 34,000-year-old horn of the Triceratops was found in Montana.
Triceratops, one of the "most famous" dinosaurs, is a branch of the grass-eating Ceratopsid that first appeared during the late Cretaceous period. They were thought to be extinct during the Creta disaster that occurred 66 million years ago.
The Triceratops horn in Montana is not the only one. Many Carbon-14 tests have been gradually applied to other fossils. Surprisingly, many of them produce results thousands of years instead of millions of years. After classification, the fossils usually produce dating results ranging from 23,000 years to 39,000 years ago.

The evidence shown in ancient art culture
The view that dinosaurs went extinct tens of millions of years ago was born by paleontologists and geologists. These scientists are all very confident in their thesis, but they have not been able to explain some of the strange details expressed in ancient works of art.
6000 years ago, Indians built the Vittala temple with many sculptures depicting shapes of life on rocks. Remarkably, visitors coming here can discover 2 creatures shaped like dinosaurs.
While the Brontosaurus- like creature is controversial about its camel-like appearance, the remaining image clearly bears the characteristics of the Stegosaurus sword-back dinosaur. These are two large reptiles that lived in the Cretaceous.
2 creatures were found at the ancient Indian temple Vittala.The creature on the left resembles a dinosaur of the Brontosaurus clade, while the one on the right resembles a Stegosaurus sword dino.
At the same time, the Tapestry stone mural at the de Blois church depicts the mother and daughter a strange creature shaped like a platypus of a Spinorhinus species.
The richest must include the treasure of sculpture statues of the ancient Acambaro people . Among the ancient sculptures, there are many shapes of dinosaurs, including depictions of warriors riding dinosaurs, or playing with baby dinosaurs.
Much longer, the Triceraptors themselves also appear quite a lot in the cave paintings scattered across 4 continents: Asia, Europe, Africa and America.
Descriptions of creatures that resembled dinosaurs of ancient cultures.
The images of dinosaurs in ancient art and culture appear in many parts of the world, with accurate descriptions that match the results of dinosaur image reconstruction thanks to modern technology today.
In addition, scientists believe that ancient humans did not have enough knowledge and technology to understand and assemble pieces of dinosaur fossils into complete skeletons. Therefore, ancient people could hardly imagine the detailed shape of dinosaurs, unless they had actually seen them with their own eyes.
According to ancient images, there are nearly 10 types of dinosaurs that still exist until the human age. Many of them have the ability to be transformed into different magical creatures in the treasure of myths and world legends.
