Prettige feite

Yamaceratops was about as long as a cat, only 50 cm (1.6 ft) from nose to tail.1

A juvenile Yamaceratops was found that was about three years old and weighed only 1.2 kg (2.6 lb).1

Its name comes from Yama, a Tibetan Buddhist god, and 'ceratops' meaning horned face.1

Yamaceratops had long hind legs, which means it probably ran on two feet.1

The frill on its head was not for display, unlike later horned dinosaurs. Scientists think it may have been used for something else.2

It lived during the Late Cretaceous, about 85 to 72 million years ago.3

Mite-breker

Mite: Some people think all horned dinosaurs had big frills for display.

Waarheid: Yamaceratops had a small frill that scientists think was not used for showing off, suggesting frills evolved for other reasons first.2

Vir dino-kenners

Wetenskaplike naam: Yamaceratops
Benoem deur: Makovicky and Norell 20065
Groep: Dino's met horings
Familie / klade: Neoceratopsia5

Ouderdom van die rotse: 86 tot 72 miljoen jaar (Santonian / Campanian)5
Rotsformasies: Javkhlant5

Ontdekking: Yamaceratops was named in 2006 by P. J. Makovicky and M. A. Norell. The first fossils were found in the Javkhlant Formation of Mongolia.1 3
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are still debating exactly where Yamaceratops sits on the family tree of horned dinosaurs, and whether its frill had a special function.2
