Description

Mary Anning has been famous for fossil hunting since her lifetime. Among many palaeontologists studying Lias fossils from Lyme Regis, Dorset, William D. Lang (1878-1966) and Hugh Torrens (1940-) stand at the head of the study of life and work of Mary Anning. The historical study of Mary Anning makes clear the change of historical study of general sciences and throws light on the relationship between palaeontologists and fossil collectors.
