Ancient serpent shows its leg


Recommended Posts

What was lost tens of millions of years ago is now found.

A fossil animal locked in Lebanese limestone has been shown to be an extremely precious discovery - a snake with two legs.

Scientists have only a handful of specimens that illustrate the evolutionary narrative that goes from ancient lizard to limbless modern serpent.

Researchers at the European Light Source (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, used intense X-rays to confirm that a creature imprinted on a rock, and with one visible leg, had another appendage buried just under the surface of the slab.

"We were sure he had two legs but it was great to see it, and we hope to find other characteristics that we couldn't see on the other limb," said Alexandra Houssaye from the National Museum of Natural History, Paris.

The 85cm-long (33in) creature, known as Eupodophis descouensi, comes from the Late Cretaceous, about 92 million years ago.

^ The Bible is a mixture of real history, visions, dreams, and some fictional inventions, based on the beliefs of the times in which the various books were written.

Even the accurate parts are sadly misinterpreted.

Anyway -- I'm glad they found that pesky Garden of Eden serpent -- hehe. ;)

You can prove it wrong? Go ahead and be the first.

I know how it works....and I know how inaccurate it is.

Why do you think scientists dont use most of there dating methods anymore.

Really? Well, oh fount of all knowledge, enlighten us as you how you think carbon dating works, and why it's not apparently used anymore?

And, please, let's have a new argument instead of the half life of C14 which does not allow datation of things older than 60000 years old.

Otherwise, the dozens of posts with Potassium/Argon datation are going to be recycled ...

Its not worth the arguement, so i'll leave it... I have better things to do than argue with a bunch of big headed know it alls.

So you can't prove it, therefore you're wrong. And so all your posts claiming that the dating methods scientists use are inaccurate, are in fact, without any type of knowledge on the field. So concluding, you're pulling **** out of your head.

Well in reality, with the claims you make out to be fact that totally ignore proven methods, there really isn't anywhere for you to go but up.
