Hill County Courthouse. The fourth courthouse for Hill County (organized in 1853) and the third one located in Hillsboro, this impressive landmark replaced a brick court building erected in 1874. Contractors Lovell, Miller and Hood of Brownsville built this structure in 1890 at a cost of $83,000, from Bell County limestone.
The Jurassic is called the Golden Age of dinosaurs, because of the variety and abundance of dinosaurs that lived during this time, among them the largest land animals of all time, the giant sauropods (figure 45.50). Sauropods such as Brachiosaurus were the dominant herbivores (plant eaters) of the Jurassic.
Whatever its place in the theropod family tree, it's clear that Ceratosaurus was a fierce carnivore, gobbling up pretty much any living thing it happened across--including fish, aquatic reptiles, and both herbivorous and carnivorous dinosaurs (the marine component of its diet can be inferred from the fact that Ceratosaurus had a more flexible and crocodile-like tail than other carnivores, which presumably allowed it to swim with greater agility).
