Among them also a very small dinosaur: the Scypionix Samniticus, “Ciro” for friends. It is the first complete specimen of dinosaur founded in Italy. The finding only just few centimetres long, is an unprecedented case among dinosaur fossils, because it has muscles parts on the shoulder and at the basis of its tail, that are visible still today.
