Inside the guide
Every dinosaur you can name is American or Mongolian.
Not one of them ever set foot in Asia south of the Himalaya. Yet the rock beneath central and western India holds one of the richest late-Cretaceous fossil beds on Earth.
These animals have Sanskrit names. They were dug out of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana by Indian palaeontologists, and one of them is named after Rabindranath Tagore.
This guide introduces nine, with the localities, the dates, and the papers behind them. It's also the factual ground beneath my novel PRAANN: The Resurrection, out 8 November 2026.
