Two Emirati women walk past the 140-mill

Two Emirati women walk past the 140-million-year-old dinosaur put on display at Abu Dhabi international airport until October on August 11, 2008. The 23-meter, 4.5 tonne Apatosurus skeleton, named Einstein, arrived at the Emirati capital's airport on July 17 and in the first two weeks of its display at the arrivals hall, 36,000 travellers and visitors have stopped to examine the long-necked vegetarian dinosaur who lived during the Jurassic Period. The unique exhibition shows the first significant prehistoric dinosaur skeleton ever to be assembled in the Middle East. According to a statement issued by the Abu Dhabi Airports Company (ADAC), Einstein was discovered in Dakota in the United States and carefully transported to the United Arab Emriates in ten cargo crates.
