Theosaurus

The dinosaur god, or the lord of all the great lizards. A unique specimen, the skeleton of which has never been found, but the image of which appears in many of the earliest cave paintings, depicted as a giant bearded lizard seated on a cloud or floating in a celestial environment.

Early Brontosauri used to raise their heads and low to the sky in praise of the mighty Theosaurus.

Later Brontosauri built piles of rubble in homage to him.

-Theosauruses had very low I.Q.'s, a bit like me!!

thesaurusize

Taking a sentence from a (generally) published source and using a thesaurus to change the words so as to avoid plagiarism.
