Ashfall: Life and Death at a Nebraska Waterhole Ten Million Years Ago
By Mike Voorhies, Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology
Hundreds of skeletons of prehistoric animals have been found in a volcanic ash bed buried beneath the rolling farmlands of northeastern Nebraska. Some of the best-preserved fossil rhinos, horses, camels, and birds known anywhere have been, and are being, excavated by museum crews working in the Ashfall Fossil Beds in northern Antelope County. Unlike most fossil deposits, which consist of scattered bones accumulated over extended periods of time, the ash bed contains mostly articulated remains with bones still joined together in the proper order.Quick burial in volcanic ash accounts for the three-dimensional preservation of the skeletons of species that became extinct millions of years before they could have been seen by humans. These remarkably lifelike skeletons, some of which contain unborn young and stomach contents, give paleontologists an opportunity to reconstruct the life appearance and habits of these ancient species with an accuracy never before attainable. The ash bed also contains abundant additional clues to the vegetation and climate of the landscape in which the rhinos and other animals lived and died. It is truly a 'time capsule' presenting us with a picture of a vanished world unrivaled in detail and clarity. This pamphlet describes some of the highlights of the first two decades of exploration of the site. It also invites you, the reader, to experience a sense of discovery of Nebraska's deep past by visiting the locality, which is now open to the public five months each year.

I am currently studying aetosaurs , extinct relatives of crocodilies and dinosaurs, while working towards my Master's degree at Texas Tech University under Dr. Sankar Chatterjee I am a Colorado native and have had a life-long interest in Paleontology. During high school, I volunteered in the fossil lab at the Denver Museum of Natural History (now the Denver Museum of Nature and Science ), where I developed fossil preparation skills under Dr. Kenneth Carpenter and Brian Small. I also participated in the assembly of the Prehistoric Journey exhibit. In the summer of 1993, I worked as a Student Paleontologist at Ashfall Fossil Beds State Historical Park in Nebraska. I attended Colorado State University as a student of geology and zoology, and graduated in May, 1999. After a brief stay in St. Louis, I returned to Colorado for a short time before moving to Lubbock. I am currently a member of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology , the Paleontological Society , and the Geological Society of America . Previously I have worked on mosasaurs , large marine lizards that lived during the Late Cretaceous Period. I have one published paper in

Dinosaurs and Paleontology
Dinosaur is the term given to various kinds of extinct reptiles of the Mesozoic, from 230 to 65 million years ago, when they were the dominant land animals on Earth. Thousands of dinosaur remains have been found worldwide. 'Fossils' are remains of prehistoric organisms, preserved by burial under countless layers of sedimentary material. They are a record of the history of life, beginning approximately 3.5 billion years ago. The study of fossils is called 'paleontology'. If you're interested in learning more about Dinosaurs and their fossil records, or in becoming a paleontologist, you can start by browsing through some of the links below.
