Why if the dinosaurs were extinct before man do ancient ruins have symbols of dinosaurs on them?
Ancient ruins do not have symbols of dinosaurs on them. Some have symbols of mythical creatures called dragons on them. It is possible that the concept of dragons developed as an attempt to explain the source of dinosaur bones known to the ancients.
What mass extinction was responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs?
Some believe it was a natural occurring ice age.
Others say it resulted from the impact of an asteroid, comet, or meteor that released enough debris into the atmosphere to trigger a "impact winter" that blocked sunlight from reaching the ground and prevented plants needing photosynthesis from growing resulting in the starvation of dinosaurs and other creatures.
It could also have been the great flood that has been recorded all over the world and the dinosaurs never made it into Noahs ark :)

How many years ago did Moses live?
The Bible says that the Israelites spent 430 years in Egypt, and an analysis of the biblical genealogies suggests that Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt around 1440 BCE. That means that the journey to Egypt would have taken place about 1870 BCE. According to Genesis, Moses' grandfather, Kohath, was alive at the time of the migration of the Israelites to Egypt and lived 133 years, while Moses' father, Amran, lived 137 years. We do not know how old Kohath was when he went to Egypt, but if he and his son Amran were capable of fathering a child at any time between puberty and the year of their deaths, then Moses was born between about 1855-1600 BCE.
Since Moses died just before the invasion of Canaan, forty years after the Exodus from Egypt, he died about 1400 BCE.
On these figures, Moses was born about 3,610 to 3,865 ago and died about 3410 years ago. On the other hand, Moses is recorded as living to 120 years old, which means that one or both of the above dates is wrong, or just that the Bible was written before the invention of calculators and a ready means of checking the facts as they are being written.
