    So their proof is that ancient Chinese dragon depictions look like dinosaurs? Well, no shit Sherlock. Ancient people find a huge dinosaur skull fossil, of course they start making up dragons.

      It’s worse than that. Read the fine print.

      They claim that all Chinese pottery was built wrong. The article says (sic) “If you Photoshop the handles to reverse the head, it looks like a Triceratops instead of a classic Chinese dragon.”

      Seriously. The evidence they claim is that if you digitally alter the photo, it looks like a dinosaur.
