I would have to assume that since modern day man has been able to reconstruct images of dinosaurs based of of skeletal formation that early man would be able to do the same.
All it would take would be to unearth one that is still intact.

Just a few years ago science stated that there is no proof that life exists anywhere else in the universe. They will not allow for it without proofs. Proof? This is an assumption by science that life doesn't exists elsewhere unless they can see it, touch it, or prove it. Doesn't that sound inane to anyone else? What egos man has. That a thing doesn't exist unless they can prove it makes me laugh. Sounds like little kids in the yard howling, "Prove it! Lemme see!" They are as blinded by their science as a religious fanatic is by his faith. That we have not proved a thing is not sufficient arguement enough to wholesale dismiss another's speculation. Curb your criticism and just keep asking questions.... or you will fall into that group of people who knew the world was flat and that the Earth was the center of the universe and that tomatos were poisonous.... History will mark your ill tempered ignornace.

How do you know that? Looks more like the Stegasoarus to me.
[edit on 1-2-2010 by sparrowstail]
It just makes more sense that it's a chameleon rather than a creature that been extinct long before the place was built. It's Occam's razor.
im sorry but saying it makes more sense doesnt make it logical fact. Why does it make more sense? Have you limited the universe down a only a handful of possibilities? The mere fact that the stone carving looks nothing like a chameleon and exactly like a stegosaurus means its your logic that is flawed. the only reason is doesnt make sense TO YOU is because your belief system is locked in concrete and incapable of accepting the notion that you have been either lied to or the experts are in fact NOT EXPERTS. So this inability of your ego to accept that you could have been so easily conned puts up a wall of disbelief. " oh it MUST be a chameleon because if it actually IS a dinosaur then that means the experts are lying to the population and that means the government doesnt have our best interest at heart and that means they really are screwing us over and that mean...." and so forth. You see it opens up a can of worms that your boundries of reality simply cannot deal with. Your mind is just not strong enough to deal with the possibility that your wrong. And i belive this is your fundamental flaw.
Rigid beliefs that are not flexible will snap under pressure and take your mind with it.
lets look at this logically shall we. Lets say for arguments sake that your right and im wrong. what are the ramifications of that reality? it means im easily susceptible to radical ideas and dont follow the status quo. It also means that there is no cover up that the world is exactly as it should be and it is only a handful of people online who believe they are being lied to. NOW here is the kicker
WHAT IF WE ARE RIGHT AND THAT IS A DINOSAUR??? What if it is YOU who is wrong and it was YOU that they lied to. The implications of YOU being wrong are far greater than ME being wrong. So given that reality dont you think its in your best interest to defend your reality? Dont you think you would see chameleons where there in fact dinosaurs beacuse the implications of you being wrong are far more devastating to your psyche. Try to approach a topic subjectively i know its hard we are programmed with pre conceived notions of what we think is real and what we are told is fantasy. Just keep asking your self this question over and over again with any topic and any scenario. What are the implications if im wrong and what are the implications if im right. Which answer is going to rock my world the most and pursue that line of reasoning dont be afraid of what you find seek it out.
Towing the line and regurgitating facts that have been brainwashed into you isnt a sign of wisdom or intelligence it just displays an innate ability to copy and paste.
Remember if im wrong it doesnt mean jack to the world but if im right then a lot of people are going to be pissed off..... read this over a couple of times and let it percolate.....
