Who discovered the archaeopteryx?
Good question this. The person who is credited with finding the first piece is Von Meyer although he only became aware of the species at his second attempt in 1861. He had in fact first seen a specimen in 1860 but because it was only a single feather he had misidentified it. It wasn't until the following year when viewing a specimen now known as the London specimen (a headless fossil) that was in the possession of Haberlein that he realised the importance of the feather fossil and put two and two together. Haberlein then sold the lot to the British museum for around 700 quid.
