Early Cretaceous, 97-99 million years old.


Rebbachisaurus—meaning "Aït Rebbach lizard"—was a bold giant among sauropods from the Diplodocoidea family, roaming Africa and possibly South America around 99-97 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous. Fossils found in Morocco, Niger, Algeria, and Tunisia link it firmly to this era, with Moroccan finds being unmistakably Rebbachisaurus. The revelation of Rayososaurus, a South American doppelgänger, challenges old beliefs, suggesting these continents were still connected when thought long apart. Towering 14 meters and weighing 7 metric tons, this creature combined a small head, elegant neck, and whip-like tail with a fierce, towering, ridged spine that set it apart from all other sauropods.




Please be aware of the nature of fossils:

Being buried under the ground for millions of years under tons of pressure tends to be rough. No fossil comes out of the ground whole and perfect. Most fossils have undergone some restoration, while others are altered by man simply to enhance their presentation in different ways. The workers in Morocco do a very professional job, of unearthing and preserving these natural treasures; however, commonly, natural cracks are visible on the surface. These are part of the natural beauty of the fossil and are not considered defects.
