Protoceratops means "first horned face." This name is derived from the Greek words "proto," meaning first, "keras," meaning horn, and "ops," meaning face. Protoceratops is a small, herbivorous dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period and is known for its distinctive frill and beak-like mouth, but it did not have the prominent horns seen in later ceratopsians. It is often considered a precursor to more advanced horned dinosaurs.
