Before the world was as we know it, thousands of dinosaurs roamed the earth rejoicing among nature. After Pangea transformed into continents, the remains of the dinosaurs were scattered around the world. But do you know which dinosaurs inhabited the city you live in?
Thanks to California paleontologist Ian Webster, you can now tell which dinosaurs lived right where you do. The interactive map, Ancient Globe, is a very simple tool to use, all you have to do is enter the map and enter your city, neighborhood or street in the search engine.
Then in the upper right part you will find the “Jump to” menu, which will display a series of options that include: viewing dinosaurs, insects, plants or the first cells on Earth.
The dinosaurs of the past in your city
In short, you will have the opportunity to guide this virtual model wherever is most convenient for you. The goal will be to reveal the ancient beings that once walked on the same ground as you and get to know them in depth.
Once you have found the species of dinosaurs that inhabited your city you can access wonderful data. The map is capable of going back about 750 million years in time, even when glaciers still dominated our planet.
We’re ready to dive into this ancient dinosaur map and share every species that walked or flew over Earth. Additionally, if you are looking for more information about the lands’ past, you may also be interested in exploring the map of your city’s past.
Let us not forget that the Earth did not start from the birth of the human being, an entire history of evolution is protected in the past of the soil and little by little we have discovered the slight vestiges of our ancestors.
