Saturnalia
Saturnalia is a genus of very early saurischian dinosaur, from the Carnian faunal stage of the late Triassic period (227.4 to 220.7 million years ago), making it one of the oldest true dinosaurs yet found. It may have been a primitive sauropodomorph, a group which includes the giant sauropods. It probably grew to about 1.5 meters (5 ft) long. The few known remains of this genus have many prosauropod features, yet lack other characteristics shared by all dinosaurs.
Yes, Saturnalia, the monster which over time became a god to be worshipped around midwinter, at which time they noticed a planet in the sky....I'm sure the story goes like this, that an angel was riding a...yes...a dinosaur in the sky....and lo! A planet appeared, and they called it

Newgrange (Irish: Dún Fhearghusa) is one of the passage tombs of the Brú na Bóinne complex in County Meath, one of the most famous prehistoric sites in the world and the most famous of all Irish prehistoric sites. Newgrange was built in such a way that at dawn on the shortest day of the year, the winter solstice, a narrow beam of sunlight for a very short time illuminates the floor of the chamber at the end of the long passageway.
