Agathaum

Agathaum is not an animal, but a genus of extinct herbivorous dinosaurs.

This dinosaur lived in the Late Cretaceous period, about 68 to 66 million years ago, in what is now North America.

Agathaum haydeni was about 6 meters long and weighed around 3 tons.

It had a large, triangular frill with two long, forward-pointing horns above its eyes and a smaller horn on its nose.

This dinosaur also had shearing teeth that were adapted for cutting tough plants.

Agathaum haydeni was one of the earliest and most primitive ceratopsians, and it is closely related to other genera such as Monoclonius and Centrosaurus.

Agathaum is not an animal, but a genus of extinct herbivorous dinosaurs that lived in the late Cretaceous period, about 70 million years ago.

They are known for their large size, reaching up to 9 meters in length and 4 meters in height, and their distinctive horns and frills on their heads.

These dinosaurs belong to the family Ceratopsidae, which includes other horned dinosaurs such as Triceratops and Styracosaurus.

The Agathaum is a genus of extinct herbivorous dinosaurs that lived in the late Jurassic period, about 150 million years ago.
They belonged to the group of stegosaurs, which had rows of bony plates and spikes along their backs and tails.
The Agathaum was named after the British writer Agatha Christie, who was a fan of dinosaurs and wrote a novel called The Pale Horse, which featured a fossilized dinosaur bone as a clue.

The Agathaum had a small head with a beak-like mouth and peg-like teeth for chewing plants.
It had a long neck and a barrel-shaped body supported by four sturdy legs.
It had two pairs of large triangular plates on its shoulders and hips, and four pairs of smaller plates along its back.
It also had four long spikes on its tail, which it could use to defend itself from predators.
The Agathaum was about 9 meters (30 feet) long and weighed about 4 tons.

The Agathaum fossils were discovered in Portugal in 1999 by a team of paleontologists led by Octávio Mateus.
They were the first stegosaur fossils found in Europe and the most complete stegosaur specimens ever found.
The fossils included a nearly complete skull, which was very rare for stegosaurs.
The paleontologists named the new species Agathaum portucalensis, meaning "Agatha's wonder from Portugal".

The Agathaum was a remarkable dinosaur that combined the features of other stegosaurs with some unique characteristics.
It was one of the last and most advanced members of its group, and a tribute to one of the most famous and beloved writers of all time.
