The earliest accounts of dinosaur fossils, were discovered in ancient China and Greece, some hundred years before Christ. In China they were believed to be the bones of dragons.

I’ve heard of many different theories kicked around. Some involve ancient people finding dinosaur bones and guessing that they may have come from mythic beasts.
