The Dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Era (Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous Periods) from around 230 million years until 65 million years ago.
The ichnites, or fossilised footsteps, found in the region of La Rioja were made by Dinosaur around 120 million years ago on soft ground which hardened and solidified to become rock.
