The First Fossil Hunters: Paleontology in Greek and Roman Times by Adrienne Mayor
English | ISBN: 0691058636 | 2000 | PDF | 384 pages | 14,1 mb
The history of paleontology, as it is usually seen, starts with the work of French naturalist Georges Cuvier some 200 years ago. Mayor, a classical folklorist, moves the date back to the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans.
"The ancients collected, measured, displayed, and pondered the bones of extinct beasts," she writes, "and they recorded their discoveries and imaginative interpretations of the fossil remains in numerous writings that survive today." Among the beasts whose bones they pondered were giant giraffes, mammoths and mastodons.
