    Of course because there is no way the craftsman who made that couldn’t have used artistic license. Or for that matter never observed fossils.

      My nephew has a bunch of depictions of dinosaurs in his room.

      The only logical conclusion is that dinosaurs have roamed the earth within the last 6 years.

      We honestly have no way of knowing (unless this is some sort of common religious iconography, which it might be) what whoever carved it was thinking and why at this point. But I think ‘dinosaur’ is probably the worst answer.
