EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the intellect and determination of Mary Ann Mantell (1796-1862), the unsung heroine of the dinosaur era. Daughter of renowned anatomist George Edward Woodhouse and wife of Dr. Gideon Mantell, Mary Ann played a pivotal role in the discovery of one of the most iconic dinosaurs - the Iguanodon. In 1822, while living in St. Leonards-on-Sea, England, Mary Ann and her husband were rummaging through the local chalk pits when she stumbled upon a peculiar tooth. Unbeknownst to them, this tooth would forever change the course of scientific history. Gideon, an accomplished anatomist, identified the tooth as belonging to a new species of reptile, which he named Iguanodon - meaning "iguana tooth." The discovery of Iguanodon, a dinosaur from the Late Jurassic period, was a groundbreaking moment in the study of prehistoric life. It was the first dinosaur to be identified from its teeth alone, and its anatomy challenged the prevailing beliefs about the structure and function of dinosaur limbs. Mary Ann's role in this discovery has often been overlooked, as her husband received the majority of the accolades. However, her keen eye and unwavering support played a crucial part in bringing this remarkable find to light. The Iguanodon tooth, now housed in the Natural History Museum in London, stands as a testament to Mary Ann's significant contribution to the field of paleontology. This portrait, taken in the 19th century, beautifully encapsulates the spirit of a woman whose curiosity and perseverance paved the way for a new understanding of the ancient world. As we continue to explore the wonders of the dinosaur age, Mary Ann Mantell's legacy lives on, inspiring generations to seek out the hidden stories of history.
