The Anchiceratops was a herbivorous dinosaur discovered in Alberta, Canada. Its enormous head was crowned by a large parrot-style beak and three horns, two above its eyes and one on its nose, while its shoulders were covered by a long bony frill.
The most peculiar thing about Anchiceratops was its tail, rectangular in shape with large and thick triangular bony protrusions on its edges (epoccipitals), some of them also found on the sides of its frill.
It was discovered by the American paleontologist Barnum Brown in 1914, considering it at the time as a transition between the Monoclonius and the Triceratops.
After studying History at the University and after many previous tests, Red Historia was born, a project that emerged as a means of dissemination where you can find the most important news of archeology, history and humanities, as well as articles of interest, curiosities and much more. In short, a meeting point for everyone where they can share information and continue learning.
