A VERY INTERESTING ARTICLE was recently published by the folks at the Institute for Creation Research. It shows a picture of a dinosaur that was carved around 1,000 years ago.
It is a short article, but it packs a punch. Here are a few excerpts:
“The temple at Ta Prohm (modern day Cambodia) —with its tree root-draped stones providing a picturesque scene for visitors—lies fewer than three miles from the oft-visited major Angkor Wat complex. The Khmer people built it and the many surrounding temples during Europe’s Middle Ages.”
If you would like to take a virtual tour of the temple, GO HERE.
One should really read THE ARTICLE for oneself, but it includes this interesting observation:
“The nearest stegosaur fossils come from faraway China. It is therefore very unlikely that the ancients carved a stegosaur likeness based on fossils.”
If the date is anywhere close to 1186, and if the artist saw a living stegosaur, dinosaurs didn’t die out 60-70 million years ago. This would discredit Darwinian evolution. I’ve known about this carving for some time, but I didn’t know that it had been dated. It makes the image even more remarkable.
