1854 Megalosaurus reconstruction & jaw
Bildnummer 11598463
| 1854 Megalosaurus model by Waterhouse Hawkins with superimposed image (pale brown) of the known lower jawbone used for the reconstruction. Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins attempted to scientifically reconstruct dinosaurs for the Crystal Palace 1852-1854. He was helped by Richard Owen,the man who named the group. At this time there were few remains,so the endeavor was speculative. This miniature model was made by Hawkins for sale in the UK by Tennant 1854 and in the US by Ward 1866. Megalosaurus was the first dinosaur described by Buckland in 1824. The only bone known in the front half of the animal was the partial lower jaw. Owen supposed the giant reptile's appearance was between a crocodile and a pachyderm. Though innacurate,the reconstruction fired the publics' imagination. It would not be until the 20th century that Megalosaurus would appear as the bipedal predator we know today | |
