Its name comes from Swahili and means 'beast of the Mtuka'.1

The species name 'moyowamkia' means 'heart of the tail' because its tail vertebrae are heart-shaped.1

Mnyamawamtuka lived about 110 to 100 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous.1

It is one of the most complete early titanosaur skeletons ever found, even though the skull is missing.1

Its breastbone was unusually small, less than half the length of its upper arm bone.2

Scientists think it was a close relative of Malawisaurus, another African titanosaur.2

Mafunso ofunsidwa kwambiri okhudza Mnyamawamtuka

?How big was Mnyamawamtuka?

It was about 7.6 metres long and weighed about 1.5 tonnes, though it probably was not fully grown.1 3

?What did Mnyamawamtuka eat?

It was a plant-eater, as are all sauropod dinosaurs. Its teeth were semi-spatulate, good for stripping leaves.2

?Why is Mnyamawamtuka's tail heart-shaped?

The middle tail vertebrae have a heart-shaped rear face, which is why its species name means 'heart of the tail'.1 2

?When did Mnyamawamtuka live?

It lived about 110 to 100 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous period.1 3
