*DISCLAIMER* This week's episode is sure to ruffle some feathers. This is your ONLY reminder to be civil in the comments section. Respect other's beliefs, even if they condradict your own. :) Welcome back to the show! This week, we're diving into an eye-opening journey through the fascinating history of dinosaur discoveries and their surprising appearances in ancient art to ask one simple question: Did humans and dinosaurs co-exist? We delve into the origins of how dinosaurs were first identified, starting with Robert Plot's 1677 misidentification of a giant human bone to William Buckland's groundbreaking 1824 description of Megalosaurus. We trace the evolution of paleontology, highlighting key figures like Richard Owen, who coined the term "dinosaur" in 1842, and Gideon Mantell, who discovered Iguanodon, revolutionizing our understanding of these prehistoric giants. But that's not all! We'll explore astonishing depictions of dinosaur-like creatures in ancient art long before their "official" discovery. From Pieter Bruegel the Elder's 1562 painting "The Suicide of Saul" showing what seems to be humans riding sauropods, to Mesopotamian cylinder seals and the intriguing dinosaur engravings on Bishop Bell's tomb brass from the 15th century, the evidence is compelling. We'll also investigate the Narmer Palette of ancient Egypt and the mysterious Stegosaurus carving at Cambodia's Ta Prohm temple, challenging conventional scientific narratives. Join us as we unravel these historical puzzles and speculate on the coexistence of humans and dinosaurs. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, this episode promises to ignite your curiosity and provoke thought. Don't miss out on this deep dive into the unknown, where history, science, and mythology intersect in surprising ways. --- TIME STAMPS: SPOTIFY 0:00 - Sound Board Check 1:14 - Did Humans and Dinosaurs Co-Exist?

British iguanodontids with Joe Bonsor We have touched on Iguanodon before as one of the earliest named dinosaurs and an animal with some interesting relatives and famously spiky thumbs but they never really got the attention that they should have done (from us at least). Enter Joe Bonsor who is finishing off his PhD on these very animals and trying to sort out the utter mess that is the taxonomy of the iguanodontians in the UK. We dive into this with some surprising conclusions and interesting news about what Joe has found (no spoilers, you'll have to listen) and we go through some of the earliest dinosaur history and give some well-deserved coverage of the great Gideon Mantell.

Au début du XIXe siècle, en Angleterre, la découverte et l'étude de fossiles d'animaux inconnus vont bouleverser les connaissances. Cette nouvelle science s'appelle la paléontologie.  Les premiers paléontologues sont le Français Georges Cuvier, les Britanniques William Buckland, Gideon Mantell et sa femme Mary Ann. Il y a aussi Richard Owen. C'est lui qui a inventé le mot “dinosaure”, “dino” signifiant terrible et “saure” lézard. “Qui a inventé ?” te raconte leur histoire…

Dave Hone tells Iszi Lawrence about the early days of paleontology and the very first dinosaur discoveries in the UK. We cover the perpetually unlucky Gideon Mantell and the not especially nice Richard Owen (and Mary Anning pops up though she didn't really do dinosaurs). Dr Kiki Sandford then joins us and asks what clues there are in fossils to tell us how dinosaurs behave... and things get silly. A link to an old blogpost of Dave's including photos of the original Megalosaurus jaw at Oxford https://archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2010/11/04/more-of-megalosaurus/   Another old blogpost but with photos of the famous Crystal Palace dinosaurs. https://archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2011/10/11/crystal-palace-dinosaurs/

"We are living through a health crisis, an economic crisis, a racial crisis, and a democratic crisis. Each would be historic on their own. All of them are connected. That they have struck together in this way just might be what compels our transformation."– Anand GiridharadasThis week’s episode is over three years in the making: my talk from Earth Frequency Festival 2017, about a revised narrative of prehistory from which we can grow new myths better suited for our times. I almost didn’t post this episode at all, even after nearly two full days of editing, because it felt tone deaf to zoom out so far and discuss topics like mass extinctions, the evolution of plant-pollinator symbiosis, my critiques of transhumanism and SpaceX, and how fish and clams represent complementary strategies for dealing with turbulent environments. But this feature-length rant erupted from me at a time that rhymes intensely with our current moment: I was scheduled to present on futurism immediately following a heart-wrenching and visceral presentation on the (then ongoing) Standing Rock protests, and it felt right then as it does now to wield what I know in service of new stories that better serve the work of social justice. After all, it is only the alienated and colonized mind that sees climate change, racism, economic inequality, and ecological devastation as separate issues.No: if we are to truly embrace our interbeing with the biosphere (and we must), then we cannot exclude other human beings — or even nonhuman sentient beings — from our maps and models of the nondual truth of who we are. One more disclaimer: This is the last unpublished talk I gave before I started work at the Santa Fe Institute, where my poetic intuitions and armchair science scholarship have been challenged to rise to far greater rigor and discernment. I regard this two-hour screed as both one of my most inspired riffs, the closest that I ever got to a Terence McKenna sermon…but it’s also full of embryonic, raw ideas that have evolved A LOT since this recording happened. I share it with you not as a completed document but as a snapshot of a story in the weaving, and I hope you hear it as the work in progress that it was and is.Thank you and I hope you’ll take a moment to read the supplementary materials below, and support the crucial social justice orgs helping protect the lives and freedom of your neighbors here on Earth, in this especially intense and pivotal moment.

Angleški podeželski zdravnik Gideon Mantell je za zabavo rad zbiral fosile. V njegovi zbirki se je poleg manjših primerkov sčasoma nabralo kar nekaj tudi tako velikih, da mu ni bilo jasno, kateri živali bi lahko pripadali, saj so bile še kosti slonov manjše. Leta 1822 je njegova žena Mary našla še nekaj zelo velikih zob, za katere tudi takrat najbolj ugledni znanstveniki Anglije in Francije niso znali ugotoviti, kateri živalski vrsti so pripadali.

Part of the scientific method involves making mistakes and correcting them. Here are some interesting and sometimes goofy mistakes made by paleontologists through the years, and how the mistakes were corrected. Iguanodon did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Pterosaur did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Elasmosaurus did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Apatosaurus/brontosaurus did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Stegosaurus did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Gastornis did not actually look like this (left). It looked like this (right): Those are Gastornis's footprints: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I’m your host, Kate Shaw. Paleontology is the study of fossils, and really it’s only been a discipline for a little over a century. Back in the 19th and early 20th centuries, even experts made major mistakes in preparing and assembling fossil skeletons, and dishonest amateurs made deliberate errors so their fossil animals looked bigger or scarier. Many of these mistakes or hoaxes were displayed in museums, sometimes for decades. I found so many interesting examples during my research that I decided to split the episode into two. This week we’ll learn about some paleontological mistakes and what the fossil animals really looked like when they were alive. Next week we’ll look at the frauds and hoaxes. We’ll start with Iguanodon, a dinosaur that lived around 125 million years ago in what is now Europe. It ate plants and was fairly common, with a number of species now known to science. The biggest could grow as much as 43 feet long, or 13 meters. It had teeth that resemble an iguana’s, which is how it gets its name, and a beak probably covered in keratin that it used to clip through tough plants. It probably mostly walked on two legs and browsed from trees, but its front legs were long and it might have spent at least some of its time on all fours. But the most interesting thing about Iguanodon was its hands. Its little finger was slender and usually longer than the others and many researchers think it was used for handling food and other objects. The first finger, which is equivalent to a thumb, wasn’t so much a digit as just a big spike. It’s called a thumb spike and no one’s sure what it was for. It might have been used for defense, but it might also have been used to help dig up plants. Maybe it was used for both. But it was the source of an embarrassing mistake that many paleontologists made for years. Iguanodon came to the attention of science in 1822 when a medical doctor in Sussex, England found some fossilized teeth. No one was sure what kind of animal the teeth belonged to, although guesses ranged from a crocodile to a rhinoceros. In 1824 the doctor, Gideon Mantell, noted the teeth’s resemblance to iguana teeth, but so big that he estimated Iguanodon must have been almost 60 feet long, or 18 meters. He also thought Iguanodon looked like an iguana. In 1834 more Iguanodon fossils came to light in a quarry and Mantell bought them. This incomplete skeleton included a thumb spike, but Mantell didn’t know where it belonged. He thought it was a horn, so when he made a drawing of the living animal, he placed the thumb spike on the nose. And there it stayed, despite other fossils found with the thumb spike in place on the hand, and despite other scientists pointing out that they didn’t think Iguanodon had a horn on its nose. It wasn’t until 1882 that the nose horn vanished for good and Iguanodon started looking more like itself. Similarly, pterosaurs have been misunderstood since the very beginning, with a lot of frankly ridiculous suggestions made about them. To be fair, they are really strange animals and nothing like any animal living today.

In which our heroes get down on the floor and encourage everybody to do some kind of dance routine. Jackson and Duscher are joined by part-time dinosaur enthusiast and full time artist Nathan Davis. We collectively fight our urge to sing the Jurassic Park theme song, try and work out what killed the dinosaurs and contemplate what god’s midlife crisis would be like. Nathan gets mad at everyone’s choice of favourite dinosaur, Jackson reveals his fantasy of shaving a woolly mammoth and Duscher fails to understand history yet again. Time travel makes several appearances as does scientists failing to expand humans thirst for knowledge because their hunger knows no bounds. Listen to the end to find out about the depressing life of Gideon Mantell! Because no matter how bleak life may be, your spine was never taken from you, pickled in a jar then discarded 120 years later for taking up too much room.
