| 2018-02-01 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] A team of female Egyptian researchers achieved a scientific breakthrough at the Mansoura University in northern Egypt with an important discovery which sparked global interest. Not just scientists, but female scientists! Kathleen Kenyon's probably really impressed. The research team, headed by Dr. Hisham Salam, Director of the Excavation Center at Mansoura University, managed to discover a huge dinosaur fossil in the Dakhla Oasis in the New Valley Governorate in the Western Desert of Egypt, with a long neck and four legs aging 80 million years. "The dinosaur is an herbivore and belong to the Cretaceous era and a group called Tyrannosaurus," said Dr. Hisham Salam, director of the excavation center and head of the research "the group included the largest wild animals that lived on the earth now known as the Mansourasaurus shahinae or the Mansoura lizard in reference to where it was discovered. It is 10 meters long and weighs 5.5 tons." Salam revealed that the dinosaur lived near the shore of an ancient ocean that existed well before the Mediterranean Sea, and is among the few species of dinosaurs that lived during the last 15 million years. |
