However, the relief, along with the life-size models, was to remain in place. So the museum team measured the elevation profile of the ground over a length of more than 8 m and aligned it with the color chart. This resulted in a painting of an Early Triassic desert, including a sandstorm, lycopod stands around small waterholes, a rocky landscape at the margin of the basin, and a cicada-like insect (based on <em>Rhoeniella<\/em>). Since the area curves towards the edge, printing on a sturdy tarp was a good choice for shipping and installation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.palaeonavix.org\/en\/portfolio\/chirotherium-trackmaker-sculpture\/\">The <em>Chirotherium<\/em> \u2014 or rather, the trackmaker \u2014 looks a bit different in the museum than we had imagined it a few years ago.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sommer, G., Spindler, F. &amp; Scholze, F.
