Early Jurassic Period, 200 million years BP. A matrix containing two Coelophysis sp. footprints. 469 grams, 22cm (9"). Collected and verified by Dr Bretton Carter while working with the University of Glasgow, University of Massachusetts and the Smithsonian Institution to help prove that Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed during the late Palaeozoic and early Mesozoic eras; accompanied by a copy of a letter by Dr Bretton Carter explaining circumstances and relevance of the discovery. This specimen was collected by, verified and used as part of a study by Dr Bretton Carter while working with the University of Glasgow, University of Massachusetts and the Smithsonian Institution. A few miles from Urquhart Castle, there is a sedimentary deposit that yields schist, sandstones, and mudstones similar to those found in New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Nova Scotia. These Scottish sedimentary deposits are also Late Triassic to Jurassic in age, and placed around the same time as the fossils that have been collected from New England. Strangely enough, they hold the same species of dinosaurs, which means that the distribution of Coelophysis, Eubrontes, Dilophosaurus and the dinosaurs responsible for the Anchisauripus footprints was much more vast than ever previously thought. These Jurassic layers also extend into Shandwick Bay in Tain, Scotland, and even possibly further east into modern day Norway and Sweden. The Scottish localities have not been studied properly since the initial discovery of the tracks over 150 years ago, but the future preservation of these localities are quite promising. This specimen of Coelophysis in particular was discovered by Dr Bretton Carter, who spends much of his time studying the similarities of fossils between New England, Canada and the United Kingdom. Working with the University of Glasgow, University of Massachusetts and the Smithsonian Institution, Bretton Carter has made it his mission to find concrete evidence of the vast distribution of the New England dinosaurs possibly having extended further northeast, and as of summer 2017, he may just have done that. Bretton Carter is gathering proof that Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed during the late Palaeozoic and early Mesozoic eras.
