What is archaeoptery?
Archaeopteryx was a crow-sized early bird that belonged to the Jurassic Period. It lived some 150 million years ago in the southern regions of present day Germany. Europe in those times was a chain of islands, and the Solnhofen area (in Germany) which has the largest concentration of the fossils was a lagoon. Archaeopteryx probably lived on the low lying islands around the lagoon, and when they died they were preserved as beautiful fossils in the anoxic waters (water containing little or no oxygen) of the lagoon. These islands were semi-arid regions with long dry seasons and little rain. Although fossilized remains of tree trunks have been found, it is believed that these areas lacked large trees. As far as their diet is concerned, Archaeopteryx were carnivorous birds that fed on small animals and insects.
