- Lot Description
North America, Montana, Powderville, Powder River, Hell Creek Formation, Cretaceous period, ca. 70 to 65.5 Million years ago. A massive example of a fossilized tibia bone from the Edmontosaurus (Edmontosaurus annectens). The bone is elongated formed part of a back leg; the narrow end forming the ankle, and the larger knobbed end the knee joint. The tibia, being approximately half the length of the leg, gives a great idea of the sheer size of these dinosaurs. The legs supported a body that could be nearly 35 feet long and weigh over 4 tons. The surface has developed a lovely umber brown hue from the fossilization process. Edmontosaurus were a species of duck billed dinosaur and their name means the "lizard of Edmonton" after the capital city of the province where they were first unearthed. Size: 38" L x 11" W (96.5 cm x 27.9 cm); 42" H (106.7 cm) on included custom stand.
