This is a cast resin replica of the skull from a Cretaceous nodosaur known as Gastonia burgei. Gastonia was a herbivore in the family polacanthinae and was related to dinosaurs like the Ankylosaurs, only it lacked a tail club and had its shoulders and the perimeter of its body covered in long spikes. When under attack from a predator this dinosaur would probably have hunkered down in a defensive squatting position to protect it's belly and thrust the spikes on its sides at attackers. Original specimen was found in the Cedar mountain formation of Eastern Utah and is early Cretaceous in age.
