alright, think about what were most modern desets in prehistoric times, they were all majors bodies of water. So it stands to reason that if there was a mojor body of water there and all the marine life in that water died, and that water receeds or dries up it would leave behind all the bones and skeletons of everything that once lived there in the sand, which is now a desert. Weird how that works huh?
