Short notice but the team of dinosaur paleontologists just arrived back in Luanda after three weeks searching for fossils from Cabinda to Namibe and from Bengo to Lunda Norte. The Angola Field Group invites you to a presentation to hear all about the PaleoAngola Field Expedition 2013, at the Viking Club, Thursday August 01, at 8:00 PM. Their first expedition was in 2005.  Our presenters are internationally recognized experts in their field and refer to Angola´s abundance of fossils as a ´museum in the ground´. Dr. Jacobs teaches geology and paleontology at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, USA. Six fossil species have been named after him. Dr. Octavio Mateus is a paleontology  Professor at Universidade Nova de Lisboa. PaleoAngola partners with  Agostinho Neto University and ISPRA University in Lubango. Visit www.paleoangola.org for more info.
