Some thought-provoking material I discovered:
My mom was researching dinosaurs a while ago, and she came across the flying reptile Quetzalcoatlus. With a wingspan of 32 feet, they could have easily carried a human.
The Nazca Lines of Peru also pose some rather large questions. This article ends with this thought:
Quote:
Because of their huge size, the only way to appreciate the lines and images is from the air, which automatically poses the question: Did ancient cultures have a means of flying?

Movies such as Dintotopia may seem fantastic, but there is nothing to suggest that humans did not ride dinosaurs/dragons in the past.

So I'll leave you to research and answer the question: Were Dragonriders once real?

lol. I don't think with any certainty we can say that they were. But I think it's entirely plausible! I also think it's possible that these people had mechanical means of flying. *Shrug* Think of all the technology from before the flood that we don't know about!

Nessa- She's given up the veil, the vows she'd sworn, abandoned every effort to conform. Without a word to anyone she's gone her way alone, a dove escaping back into the storm.

Nolan- And though I don't understand why this happened, I know that I will when I look back someday, and see how you've brought beauty from ashes, and made me as gold purified through the flames.

Azriel- And who do you think you are, running round leaving scars, collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart? You're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul, so don't come back to me. Don't come back at all...

True. But as fantasy nerds, it's neat to consider. lol
