About

Within its walls, the Cathedral of St. Ambrose has been hiding a special parishioner.

According to one paleontologist, the stone that was used to erect the walls of St. Ambrose in Vigevano may contain the remains of an unlikely resident: a dinosaur, fossilized within the walls. The cranium, nasal cavity and teeth of what appears to be a dinosaur’s skull can be viewed by X-ray, but Andrea Tintori – the University of Milan paleontologist who found the skull – believes the remains are so clearly dino in nature they could easily be identified without any technical skills.
