Why Haven’t We Found Dinosaur and Human Fossils Together?

Why haven’t we found dinosaur and human fossils together? In season 2, episode 3 of The Genesis Account of Noah’s Ark, Calvin Smith, a Bible-believing Christian, shares his answer to this question.

What makes people thank that the animals on the Ark were grown, wouldn't it be more practical to have young ones aboard?

[BigBoPete]

Without watching my answer is... People wouldn't have been hanging out with dinosaurs.

Interest note about The Ashley Phosphate Beds in SC, An enormous phosphate graveyard that contained mixed remains of man with land and sea animals, notably crocodilians, ichthyosaurs, hadrosaurs, plesiosaurs, whales, sharks, zeuglodon, monkeys, rhinos, horses, mastodons, mammoths, porpoises, elephants, deer, pigs, dogs, and sheep.

We didn't find human remains in the geological record alongside dinosaurs because God said he would wipe out humanity completely except for Noah and his family.

[ryans]

Not finding human and dinosaur fossils buried together isn’t an argument against their coexistence. We also don’t find coelacanth and whale fossils buried together, but both coelacanth and whale are alive and coexist today. Just like how we have ancient carvings of dinosaurs in places like Carlisle Cathedral (two brass sauropod carvings are on Richard Bell’s tomb, he died in 1496) and Ta Prohm temple in Cambodia (a stone Stegosaurus carving is on one of the walls, completed circa 1200 AD), both proving that man and dinosaur lived together as late as 500 years ago. Dinosaurs are just likely extinct now, just as many other animals have gone extinct in the past several decades/centuries.

Plenty of text of dragons ....dragon =dinosaurs before the word dinosaurs was invented

I know for a fact Noah's flood is true because back in 2002 or 3 I was standing in my living room leaning against my couch and God gave me a vision of Noah standing at the entrance of the ark he looked so proud he had long white hair and a long white beard and he was holding a shepherds staff that curved at the top then I looked down and saw two giraffes two elephants and two rhinos two of every living animal God created going to Noah they stretched out as far as my eyes could see. I told people but they said it was just my imagination. But it is absolutely true !!! I didn't learn about the ark encounter they had built until about two years ago so now I am trying to tell everyone that will listen because people need to repent.!!! I know now that Jesus Christ is the ark !!! I'm praying that God will help share my vision now because God's timing is always perfect. 🙏 In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray.AMEN

I believe the scriptures support a timeline longer than 6000 years, however it's my belief in Jesus Christ through whom I'm saved that is far more important.

I recommend watching “The Ark and the Darkness”…it’s on YT. Very well done, and thought-provoking.

Jeremiah 49:33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation for ever; there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.

In Glen Rose, Texas, there are fossilized dinosaur footprints in the river and creek beds throughout the area, most of which are concentrated in Dinosaur Valley State Park. In many places, people have found fossilized human footprints alongside and even inside the dinosaur footprints.

[ajmittendorf]

Is there ANY validity, when someone asks why no human and dinosaur fossils have been found together, in answering with a speculative “not yet”?

[scottmatthews]

Thank you for making these videos.

Please help me understand this argument better, that it might be more useful to me.

I would have thought that, if the great flood created a large number of the now-observed fossils, then any given group of fossils should nearly always contain a wide mix of organisms, including humans, because -all- of the living humans, and -all- of the other land dwelling creatures and plants (except those in the ark) were killed and fossilized together within a very small window of time.

People had already congregated into cities by the time of the great flood, so perhaps the chances of finding a human fossil vary greatly depending on location? The world is large, so perhaps we just aren’t looking in the right place?

On the other hand, it would also seem that there would be fossil beds with high concentrations of humans along with domesticated animals and plants; created when civilizations were consumed by the waters. Perhaps cities and farms tend to be located in places unlikely to fossilize? Or perhaps they tend to get buried so deep that they aren’t likely to be found? Perhaps new cities exist on top of the fossilized ones, preventing their excavation?

Also, if the great flood is responsible for creating most of the fossils we see today, I do not understand why the vast majority of fossils found would be of marine life. While the great flood may have disrupted marine environments so much as to kill many marine organisms, the death of all land creatures was explicitly universal.

I would very much appreciate your insight to be better prepared to meet these objections.

Thanks again.

I had the same question, however it came from genuine curiosity while living in Faith through God's grace.

[robinsonmitchell]

A related question - why do vast layers of Cambrian and Ordovician limestone and sandstone have no vertebrates in them at all? Stratigraphy looks like there were long periods of living things that existed long there were marine vertebrates, much less terrestrial tetrapods.

Here in Texas we have a fossil footprint of a dinosaur, beside a HUMAN FOOTPRINT! Yes its real....

[CoolPaDuke]

I'm surprised you didn't mention the times that mammal and dinosaur fossils were found together, like the footprint of a dinosaur in hardened mud over a human footprint.

[Michael-pnlp]

If they did find them together, do you think they wouldn't cover it up ?

[Heisrisin]

Adrian Rogers once explained the difference between evolution and the fairytale. In a fairytale, a princess kisses a frog, and he turns into a prince. In evolution a frog, given enough time will evolve into a prince.

[TrueDoginabog]

Aight so just started the video, may I please see the sources he's drawing the claim from about modern animals being found in old rock layers?
