Are those really the holotype bones, covered in stones and dust at the Naturkunde Museum, or are they just casts (maybe HMallison knows)? Seems like a bit haphazard way to store them. FunkMonk (talk) 03:39, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

this is a dsiplay showing what the excavation looked like in the field. Nopthing haphazard. HMallison (talk) 09:07, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I mean they're covered in stones, dust, and equipment, doesn't it damage the bones (if only slightly), by scratching or withering them? FunkMonk (talk) 09:09, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
All that is around them, not on top of them. HMallison (talk) 19:03, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
