March 1996 : Discovery of the site, where a considerable number of dinosaur eggs and nests were found in situ, established that the area had been used for nearly ten million years (from 71 to 65 million years ago) by many different species of dinosaur.

Work by a number of researchers all over the world, including Mrs Vianey-Liaud of the Montpellier II University's Institute of Science and Evolution, has succeeded in developing a parallel taxonomy (classification of the elements in a particular domain) whose use today enables dinosaurs' eggs to be dealt with as a particular category of fossil in their own right.
