We are at 140 million years now..
'In what is being hailed as a “major discovery,” paleontologists found a thigh bone of a massive dinosaur this week at an excavation site in southwestern France'
The 140-million-year-old dinosaur bone, measuring 6.5 feet in length and weighing 1,100 pounds, was unearthed at Angeac-Charente, a site that has been yielding fossils since 2010.

The bone was discovered nestled in a thick layer of clay. Other bones from the animal’s pelvis were also unearthed. (Photo Credit: Georges Gobet / AFP / Getty Images)
So this is an actual bone, not a fossil? 140 million years....
'Aside from the size, paleontologists were also especially amazed by the state of preservation of the femur'
'We can see the insertions of muscles and tendons, and scars,” Ronan Allain, paleontologist at the National History Museum of Paris, told Le Parisien newspaper. “This is rare for big pieces which tend to collapse in on themselves and fragment'
So this bone, has just hung around for 140 million years waiting to be discovered? How, does anyone with any common sense arrive at that number?
It appears as though the royal 'they'are ramping up the mainstrem narritive of late.
Thoughts?
