Mary Anning
Notes de l’épisode
Mary Anning was one of the most important fossil hunters in history. Working along the cliffs of Lyme Regis in the early nineteenth century, she uncovered remarkable prehistoric creatures including ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs that transformed scientific understanding of the ancient world. Despite limited formal education and little recognition during her lifetime, her discoveries helped shape the science of palaeontology. In this episode of Compact Biographies, we explore the life of the determined fossil hunter whose work revealed a prehistoric world hidden within the cliffs of England's Jurassic Coast.
