Summary

[edit]
Description
Magyar: A Protorosaurus speneri fosszilis maradványa az Angliában levő Királyi Sebészeti Akadémián.
English: Fossil of Protorosaurus speneri in the Hunterian Museum at the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

This fossil was originally owned by Christian Spener (1678-1714), a German physician who had a fine collection of curiosities.

The antiquary John Woodward (1665-1728) bought the specimen in 1714. It was subsequently purchased by the dealer George Humphreys and acquired by John Hunter at an auction in 1779.

The long history of this fossil reveals the growing trade in fossils in the 18th century. Keen collectors included society figures such as Margaret Cavendish, Duchess of Portland (1714-1785).
