Eoraptor means "dawn
thief." It was found by Ricardo Martinez
in 1991;
in the Ischigualasto Badlands of Argentina . This
area was a river valley during the late Triassic
period but is a desert. Eoraptor was found
near the same site from which Herrerasaurus,
another very early theropod, was found. Eoraptor
was named by Paul Sereno in 1993.
