Chennai: Geologists have discovered a group of dinosaur eggs, has about 65 million years ago in a village in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, according to press reports Saturday.
“We found: layer after layer spherical and dinosaur eggs and body parts of each cluster contains eight eggs,” M. Ramkumar, a geologist at the University of Periyar, who was a team led by a survey in the words of Hindu cities.
The eggs, which grew to 8 inches in diameter, discovered in a study funded by Indian institutions and scientists in Germany.
The clusters were caused by ash from volcanic eruptions in the Deccan plain, one might say that geologists have vanished dinosaurs.
The nest was found on the banks of streams and bottom of the basin of the Cauvery river, with a cluster of fossilized eggs, manure and bones of dinosaurs.
The researchers asked the officials to cordon off the site, as a similar discovery in northern India has led to a plundering of fossil fuels.
