Are there any sources talking about dinosaur finds in history?

by Jusselle

I wonder that because finding dinosaur remains is not possible everywhere but surely in some places and you dont have to dig too deep and some are even exposed. So the chances of peopl3 finding them is there in my opinion. Are there any sources of head/bones being found and how did they explain it? Same goes for fossiles.

When searching for an answer, I came across this prior r/AskHistorians post.

Other than that, the earliest mention of fossils I can find is by Robert Plot in a 1677 publication so we know people found them prior to 1677.
