From the Glyptodon Species
As the researchers continued their digging, they started to unveil something of major interest. There were not only one but four of the shells on Juan’s ranch. This was a major discovery because findings of its kind in the past didn’t yield much, mostly providing just one sample. But this time around, they managed to find four! Interestingly, all four fossils were of different sizes and prompted the scientists to wonder if it was a complete family they had discovered. However, the strange features and findings kept on coming.

There were interesting features on these newly discovered fossils that allowed them to stand out from the others they had found before. All four this time were facing the same direction – westward. This was an indication they must have died at the same time. Their proximity also gave the scientists added information that indicated they were either a group of hunters or a family. Glyptodons never usually travel in groups, so when they made this discovery, the archaeologists and paleontologists knew that they needed to do deeper research and investigations.
