Dinosaur carving in Cambodia?


Just right outside of Angkor Vat, 10km North of Tonle Sap Lake in Cambodia, Ta Prohm Temple is showing another evolution mystery. A very specific carving is showing what seems to look like a Stegosaurus.

But we need to take one step back to really ask ourselves the right questions and try to explain that.

Sensation seekers will say man and dinosaurs co-existed. Doubters will claim that the builders carved a lizard or a rhino.

We can safely say that neither is likely to be true.

If men and dinosaurs co-existed we most probably would have found at least one bone to carbon date for evidence back up.

On the other hand, we have to realize that the builders of ancient temples cared so much for detail, harmony and were looking for perfection. Could they really have depicted a rhino with imaginary extra spikes on its back? Or a lizard with a body shape totally disproportionate?

What about an ancient animal species that we have yet to discover? This seems a little bite more reasonable and logical, doesn't it?

We don’t have an answer to this “Dino Mystery” but one thing is sure, what is admitted both by dreamers and doubters, is not true.
