Megalosaurus fossils were first uncovered in 1819, but not described in a scientific paper (not published) until 1824.

To be sure, fossils had been uncovered centuries earlier, but these were variously described as the remains of dragons or other mythical beasts, and likely ended up destroyed to protect us from demonic forces and sorcery.
