Figurines

Description: In July 1944 Waldemar Julsrud, a German hardware merchant from Acambaro, Mexico, was riding his horse on the lower slope of El Toro (The Bull) and spotted some partially exposed hewn stones and a ceramic object half buried in the dirt. Over the years a total of 33,700 figurines were uncovered. The figurines depicted hundreds of different dinosaurs, extinct ice age animals, people from all over the world.
