For over a hundred years, scientists thought the Theiophytalia skull belonged to a Camptosaurus dinosaur. In 2006, researchers realized it was a completely new dinosaur.1 2

The skull was found in 1878 by a college professor named James Kerr. He thought he had found parts of 21 different sea monsters!2

Theiophytalia's skull is different from Camptosaurus in several ways: it has a longer, heavier snout, a smaller skull opening, and a stronger jaw joint.1

The dinosaur's name means 'garden of the gods' because it was found at Garden of the Gods park in Colorado.1

Theiophytalia is a type of iguanodontian dinosaur, a group that also includes the famous Iguanodon.1

The skull is about 112 million years old, from the Early Cretaceous period. Scientists know this because of the rocks it was found in.1 4

Anc discutà: Since only a skull has been found, scientists are not sure about the rest of Theiophytalia's body. They debate how it is related to other dinosaurs like Hippodraco.1 4
