This Fossil Friday, meet the Museum’s mummified hadrosaur—one of the most complete pieces of Mesozoic dinosaur remains ever found! This fossil represents one of the greatest discoveries in the history of paleontology: a rare glimpse at the texture of dinosaur skin. Like the skin on modern birds’ feet, this duck-billed dinosaur’s skin was marked by bumps called tubercles. The tubercles are larger along the animal’s back and sides and smaller around the joints, which needed to be flexible.

1,300-Year-Old Throne Room For a ‘Powerful Woman’ Unearthed in Peru
Brushing away centuries of accumulated dirt, archaeologists in Peru painstakingly unearthed an ancient throne room, complete with a throne for a “powerful woman” and colorful decorations.
A joint team of Peruvian and U.S. archaeologists returned to Pañamarca this past summer for another season of excavations, according to a Sept. 24 news release from Pañamarca Digital, a research program dedicated to the site.
Pañamarca is a “monumental center” built by the ancient Moche culture who flourished “in the coastal valleys of northern Peru between about 350 and 850” A.D., archaeologists said. The site is known for its “colorful wall paintings.”
This year, archaeologists focused on excavating a hall with decorated walls — and the results surprised them.
The team uncovered a decorated adobe throne and several murals showing a woman wearing a crown and sitting on a throne. They identified the space as a 1,300-year-old throne room “of a powerful Moche woman associated with the moon goddess.”
Photos show the ancient throne adorned with “images related to the sea and the night sky, including a crowned woman with a rattle rendered as the crescent moon,” archaeologists said. The throne’s sides showed “figures of women spinning fiber.”
Archaeologists also noticed signs of use on the throne’s backrest, demonstrating “it was used for substantial periods of time during the 600s.
Four murals on the nearby walls and pillars showed a “powerful woman” sitting on a throne and “receiving visitors in procession,” researchers said and photos show.
Excavations also uncovered “greenstone beads, fine threads, and even human hair” in the first-of-its-kind throne room.
The evidence all points to a seventh-century woman leader of Pañamarca,” archaeologists said. “A throne room for a queen has never been seen before at Pañamarca, nor anywhere else in ancient Peru.”
The Pañamarca archaeological site is near Capellania, a coastal town in northern Peru, and a roughly 250-mile drive northwest of Lima.
