Mfundo zosangalatsa
Navajoceratops is known from only a partial skull, including the back part of its frill called the parietal.1
It lived during the Campanian stage of the Late Cretaceous, between about 75.0 and 73.4 million years ago.2
Navajoceratops is a chasmosaurine ceratopsid, meaning it is closely related to famous horned dinosaurs like Triceratops.1
The deep notch in the back of its frill is a key feature that helps scientists understand how chasmosaurine dinosaurs evolved over time.2
Its fossils were found in the Hunter Wash Member of the Kirtland Formation in the San Juan Basin.2
Navajoceratops was named after the Navajo people, who are indigenous to the area where the fossils were discovered.1

?How big was Navajoceratops?
Scientists don't know its exact size because only a partial skull has been found. The skull parts suggest it was a medium-sized ceratopsian, but no full body length estimate is available.5
?When did Navajoceratops live?
Navajoceratops lived during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 75 to 73.4 million years ago, in what is now New Mexico, USA.15
?Why is it called Navajoceratops?
It is named after the Navajo people, who are indigenous to the area where the fossils were found. The name means 'Navajo horned face'.1

- Scientists are not sure whether Navajoceratops is a separate species or just a growth stage of another ceratopsian, because only a few bones have been found.2
