Status: Extinct
Time and Place: Between 247.2 to 242 million years ago, in the Anisian of the Middle Triassic 
Tumblr media
Shringasaurus is known from the Denwa Formation in Madhya Pradesh, India 
Tumblr media
Physical Description: Shringasaurus is a very strange looking reptile (befitting of the allokotosaur title), and basically looks like one of those retro ‘slurpasaurs’ from those old dinosaur movies where they just glued horns onto an iguana. At around 3–4 metres long, Shringasaurus was pretty large for a Middle Triassic archosauromorph, and could have potentially stood tall enough to look you in the eye. Shringasaurus had some very unusual proportions, with a small blunt-snouted head on a long, very thick neck attached to some very deep shoulders with tall withers over them. These chunky forequarters contrast with its rear end, with proportionately small hips and a tail that is relatively short compared to other stem-archosaurs. Of course, its most famous features are its bizarre horns over its eyes. These are remarkably similar to the horns of ceratopsid dinosaurs like Triceratops, and are yet another fabulous example of the Triassic doing everything dinosaurs did first. These horns can be as tall as the skull again in large individuals, and curve to face up and forwards. These horns were proportionately smaller in younger animals, and so likely grew in as they matured. Interestingly, one juvenile specimen lacks horns at all, even though a similar sized specimen has them, suggesting that some Shringasaurus, possibly females, didn’t have them. Even on closer inspection Shringasaurus is weird. For instance, it has palatal teeth like some other reptiles, but lots of them, and they’re all shaped exactly like the teeth on the edges of its jaws. No other reptile besides it and its close relative Azendohsaurus have teeth like that. Just imagine how that would look when it opened its mouth.
Shringasaurus embodies the typical azendohsaurid body plan of combining bizarrely ‘advanced’ sauropod-like traits with those of more ‘primitive’ archosauromorphs. Its long neck and small head has obvious superficial similarities, but features of its jaws and teeth are so sauropod-like that they’re only seen in sauropods themselves and azendohsaurids like Shringasaurus—yet another remarkable example of convergent evolution in these animals. Features of its arms are similar to sauropodomorphs too, but its posture was decidedly more ‘primitive’ than them. Its back legs sprawled completely, like those of a lizard, and while the front legs weren’t anything as upright as sauropods, they may still have been held more off the ground in a sort of semi-sprawl than the back ones. This would have given Shringasaurus a sloped back and raised the head and neck higher above its shoulders, so in a way it was still superficially sauropod-like. With horns.
Diet: Shringasaurus was clearly a herbivore from the shape of its teeth, which are leaf-shaped and serrated (indistinguishable from herbivorous dinosaur teeth, infact). The teeth and jaws of its close relative of Azendohsaurus have been studied in detail, and suggest it preferred feeding on the softer parts of plants like leaves rather than tough stems and branches. Shringasaurus had similar teeth, so it likely fed on soft vegetation also. Quite how it used its freaky palatal teeth is anyone’s guess.
Behavior: Not much can be said for sure about its behaviour, but since so many Shringasaurus individuals were found together of different ages, it’s possible that they lived in mixed-aged herds. Sexual dimorphism, if really present, would be a good indicator that the horns were used at least for display, but like the horns of ceratopsids and living bovids it’s also possible they were used in combat, locking their horns in jousts to settle disputes over food, mates, territory, or anything else they might have been grumpy over. The shape of the horns in particular implies they were mostly likely used for this kind of wrestling.
Ecosystem: Shringasaurus  co-existed with a decent variety of other typical mid-Triassic animals in the Denwa Formation. Other large herbivores included two dicynodonts, one a stahleckeriine and the other more like the older Kannemeyeria, as well as an early rhynchosaurid. No less than four temnospondyl amphibians are known from there, including the predatory Cherninia and Paracyclotosaurus crookshanki, a brachyopoid (think Koolasuchus), and a long-snouted gharial-like trematosaurid. The extinct lungfish Ceratodus was also swimming around here too. Shringasaurus was one of the largest animals known in this ecosystem, and probably would have only rubbed shoulders with the large stahleckeriine dicynodont for food sources, browsing on tall, lush plants out of reach of the other herbivores. The environment was a broad, semi-arid floodplain with slow meandering rivers, subject to seasonal rainfall and droughts that may have periodically dried up rivers and ponds.
Other: Shringasaurus belongs to a recently recognised group of archosauromorphs called Allokotosauria, the “strange reptiles”, which includes other peculiar stem-archosaurs like Trilophosaurus and bizarre Teraterpeton. Allokotosaurs all appear to be herbivores, and can be characterised by their strange teeth, but they’ve all got different types of them! Shringasaurus and other azendohsaurids all have jaws full of teeth (including the roof of the mouth) that look just like herbivorous dinosaur teeth. The resemblance is so uncanny that Azendohsaurus was considered to be a dinosaur for decades before the rest of its body was discovered. Trilophosaurids meanwhile have a characteristic beak, which in the unique case of Teraterpeton is so long and pointed that it vaguely resembles an anteater, and their teeth are cusped and interlocking for shearing leaves.
Early archosauromorphs used to be thought of as mostly carnivores and insectivores, while the role of large herbivores was dominated by the synapsid dicynodonts in the Early and Middle Triassic, with archosaurs like dinosaurs and aetosaurs, as well as the rhynchosaurs, only taking over in the Late Triassic. Allokotosaurs like Shringasaurus demonstrate that this was wrong, and that stem-archosaurs were just as capable of being derived herbivores capable of competing with synapsids in the Middle Triassic just as well as the later derived rhynchosaurs and archosaurs, including at large sizes as big as Shringasaurus. Intriguingly, there’s evidence to suggest that Azendohsaurus was endothermic to some degree, i.e. warm-blooded, and given their close relationship it’s probable that Shringasaurus was too. This would make azendohsaurids like Shringasaurus some of the earliest stem-archosaurs to have been warm-blooded!

Hello! I was wondering if you had anything on Y Gododdin 😃
hey! fellow gododdin enthusiast! what a delight
i presume this is a request for reading recommendations - i don’t know exactly what you’re looking for, or how accessible these will be, but i’ve tried to cover most bases here. i WISH there were more literary criticism, maybe there is in the welsh-language scholarship and i just haven’t found it? 
it’s entirely possible that i will have missed some obvious things here, i’m mostly sticking to stuff that i personally have read. if something mind-blowing has come out since the last time i did gododdin reading then it’s not here, i’m afraid! 
but enough disclaimers. on to the recs!
text and translation:
for a translation, i cannot recommend enough joseph p. clancy’s translation as found in the triumph tree: scotland’s earliest poetry, 550-1350, ed. t. o. clancy (1998). this is fantastic. it’s poetic, it’s a joy to read, and having used it as part of a deep read last year where i went through the welsh text in detail i am honestly AMAZED regularly at how well clancy handles the many translation issues that arise. it’s loose, and it doesn’t translate every single stanza unfortunately, but for the spirit of the poem you really can’t do better
that said, if you need another translation to check against/to fill in the gaps, i’d recommend kenneth jackson’s the gododdin: the oldest scottish poem (1969). it’s a prose translation, so it’s harder to use in conjunction with the text, but it’s pretty clear and accurate
text-wise... things get complicated. honestly, the best edition is probably still ifor williams’ canu aneirin (1938), in terms of faithfulness to the words on the manuscript page. (i also really enjoy his textual commentary, but it is in modern welsh so not accessible to everyone.) the major problem with it is that you are not going to get the stanzas in the order they appear in the manuscript - he reorders them into groups of perceived variants. this also makes it harder to distinguish between the A-text and the B-text. AND it means that the stanzas are not in the same order as in any of the translations!
if you can get hold of it, i really really think it is worth having daniel huws’ llyfr aneirin: a facsimile (1989). the introduction is SO useful for understanding the manuscript context, and it comes with gwenogvryn evans’ transcription of the book of aneirin, which you can compare with williams’ edition if need be to work out where a stanza actually goes.
there’s a conspectus of editions which i think thomas owen clancy put together but i cannot for the LIFE of me remember where it is - if you think you’ll need it, PM me and i’ll see what i can do
dating, textual criticism and historicity:
t. m. charles-edwards, wales and the britons, 350-1064 (2013), chapter 11 - this is from more of a historical perspective than a strictly linguistic/palaeographical/dating perspective, but it’s a really good general introduction and i definitely recommend starting with it. if you read nothing else, read this. this whole book is a godsend
t. m. charles-edwards, 'the authenticity of the gododdin: an historian's view', in astudiaethau ar yr hengerdd, eds. bromwich and jones (1978), pp. 44-91 - this kind of lays out the standard view which everyone has been deconstructing ever since. we don’t know anything about what’s going on with y gododdin, but at one point we thought we did know something and this was what it looked like
d. n. dumville, 'early welsh poetry: problems of historicity', in early welsh poetry: studies in the book of aneirin, ed. b. f. roberts (1988) - and HERE is the deconstruction! a pretty good overview of the issues with “knowing anything” when it comes to y gododdin
p. sims-williams, 'dating the poems of aneirin and taliesin', zeitschrift für celtische philologie 36 (2016), 163-224 - i don’t have any notes on this and haven’t read it recently, but i remember it being good (it’s sims-williams so of course it is). almost certainly contains linguistics, but is probably also written readably
o. j. padel, 'aneirin and taliesin: sceptical speculations', in beyond the gododdin: dark age scotland in medieval wales, ed. a. woolf (2013), pp. 153-75 - if you can stand linguistics talk, padel does his best to make it understandable here and gives a good overview of the linguistic arguments for and against suggested dates for y gododdin. this whole book is actually very useful
g. r. isaac, 'canu aneirin awdl LI', journal of celtic linguistics 2 (1993), 65-91, AND 'readings in the history and transmission of the gododdin', cambrian medieval celtic studies 37 (1999), 55-78 - DEEP IN THE TEXTUAL CRITICISM. honestly, my poor attention span means i find it hard to pay attention all the way through these two, but if you want a really in-depth look at the possible relationships between the A and B-texts of y gododdin, this is the way to go
historical discussion and background:
charles-edwards in wales and the britons chapter 11 again
j. rowland, 'warfare and horses in the gododdin and the problem of catraeth', cambrian medieval celtic studies 30 (1995), 13-40 - this is a pretty cool look at the role of cavalry in y gododdin and while i don’t agree with all of it, i think it’s really useful reading if you’re going for a historical take on the poem
p. m. dunshea, 'the meaning of catraeth: a revised early context for y gododdin', in beyond the gododdin again, pp. 81-114 - makes some ESSENTIAL points re the question of: is catraeth catterick? moreover, IS CATRAETH A PLACE?
c. cessford, 'northern england and the gododdin poem', northern history 33 (1997), 218-22 - a historical perspective on the poem with some very useful points, comparing the situation as sketched out in y gododdin with what we know of the area at the time
m. wood, 'bernician transitions: place-names and archaeology', in early medieval northumbria: kingdoms and communities, AD 450-1100, eds. petts and turner (2011), pp. 35-70 - a welcome look at the archaeological and place-name evidence for what was going on in bernicia as it changed from a brittonic to a germanic-dominated area. really useful to have in mind both when reading the poem and when reading more literary history
r. collins, 'military communities and transformation of the frontier from the fourth to the sixth centuries', in the same book, pp. 15-34 - pretty fascinating look at the earlier background running up to the time period depicted in y gododdin, and the possibility of continuity between the roman occupation of hadrian’s wall and the post-roman era there. useful social/archaeological perspective!
f. h. clark, 'thinking about western northumbria', in the same book, pp. 113-28 - an early medieval english perspective on the area at the time, useful for comparison and completeness’ sake 
literary discussion:
ifor williams, lectures on early welsh poetry (1944) and the beginnings of welsh poetry, ed. bromwich (1972, 2nd ed. 1980) - THE CLASSICS. an old-fashioned, not to say outdated, viewpoint, but that’s because this is the guy who INVENTED the viewpoint back when it was new! even now there’s a lot of good stuff packed into these and ifor williams’ prose style is a real pleasure to read. not to be missed
a. o. h. jarman, 'the heroic ideal in early welsh poetry', in beiträge zur indogermanistik und keltologie, ed. meid (1967), pp. 193-211 - likewise somewhat old-fashioned now, but lays out the classic viewpoint well and makes some good literary points. it may also be worth reading the introduction to his edition/translation, aneirin: the gododdin (1988). (i don’t recommend using it as an edition because he conflates the A and B texts and renders the text into modern welsh - this means it reads very smoothly but is quite a bit further away from what’s on the manuscript page.) 
h. fulton, 'cultural heroism in the old north of britain: the evidence of aneirin's gododdin', in the epic in history ed. davidson, mukherjee and zlatar (1994), pp. 18-39 - a pretty interesting read, about the mindset expressed in the poetry, its purpose and its construction
this isn’t lit crit but i’m putting in my favourite g. r. isaac quote from his article ‘gweith gwen ystrat and the northern heroic age of the sixth century’, p. 69: ‘Koch writes that the Book of Aneirin’s ‘immediate milieu is… not the Celtic Heroic Age, but the High Middle Ages’, as if the ‘Celtic Heroic Age’ were a period of comparable historical status to the High Middle Ages. This is not the case, however. A ‘heroic age’ cannot be the ‘immediate milieu’ of any literary production, a ‘heroic age’ cannot produce literature, because a ‘heroic age’ is itself produced through literature (taken in the broadest sense). It is a literary product. The Homeric epics are not the product of  a Bronze Age Achaean heroic age, but vice versa. The Irish Ulster Cycle is not the product of an Iron Age, pre-Christian heroic age, but vice versa. And the medieval Welsh poems of ‘Aneirin’ and ‘Taliesin’ (and Triads, sections of the Historia Brittonum, and much else) are not products of a sixth-century North British heroic age, but vice versa.’
honestly there just is not nearly enough lit crit for y gododdin, in english at least, especially to explain cool shit that the welsh text is doing that isn’t visible in the translation, and/or things that could be subversive or ambiguous about it - so, i don’t know what your level of engagement with the medieval welsh text is, but if you’re curious, if you want to know more about what’s going on in a specific stanza (or which stanzas are extended puns), or just which things i’ve been dying to yell about all year, PLEASE message me and I! WILL! YELL! 
articles which are almost certainly good and useful but it’s been too long since i’ve read them to say:
t. o. clancy, 'the kingdoms of the north: poetry, places, politics', in beyond the gododdin again, pp. 153-75
m. haycock, 'early welsh poets look north', likewise in beyond the gododdin, pp. 115-52
FINAL NOTE:
one of the problems with translations is that they give an impression of way more certainty about the meaning of the text... than is actually there. you’re pretty safe with clancy or kenneth jackson, but tread carefully. again, i don’t know your level of engagement with medieval welsh, but if you want to know if there are any major textual issues with a stanza, hmu and i will gladly consult my copious textual notes! but in general, BEWARE of basing anything too heavily on the following groups of stanzas:
A40, A41, B5, B6 (Am drynni drylaw drylenn; Clancy ‘For the feast, most sad, disastrous’)
A42, B25, B35 (Eur ar vur caer; Clancy ‘Gold on fortress wall’)
A48, B3, B24 (Llech leutu tud leudvre; Clancy ‘Standing stone in cleared ground’)
A62, B14, B15, B16, B36 (Angor dewr daen; Clancy ‘Anchor, Deifr-router’)
the Gorchanau if you’re interacting with those, especially the Gwarchan Maeldderw - if anyone tells you they know exactly what is going on in these, do not believe them. isaac has a full translation of the gwarchan maeldderw in cambrian medieval studies 44, and it’s useful, but i’m not by ANY means completely convinced by it, so tread carefully.  
the more stanzas there are in a group of variants (or at least a group that shares lines), the more likely it is that those stanzas are going to be SUPER DUPER TEXTUALLY FUCKED UP, is a pretty good rule of thumb.

Hi, so I really enjoyed reading your mini dissertation on gender and nationalism. Do you possibly have an recommendations to read? I kinda was inspired to know more about it after I read your post...
Hey anon! I hope you know that I had so much fun compiling this bibliography all day (in response to this post).
I don’t know how accessible it is, or where you come from in terms of academic background—I’m a political scientist by trade who sort of stumbled into gender studies when I wasn’t paying attention. It shows in the bibliography, especially in the standard works on nationalism. Someone who is deeper into the literature on the gender side of things probably could have included standard works on gender as well, but that person is not me.
If you want to be very specific about reading, I recommend Manchanda & de Haan (2018) and Nagel (1998) for an overview. Yuval-Davis & Anthias compiled a great collection of case studies in 1989 which gives a great theoretical introduction that is very practical.
I’ve divided the bibliography into the following parts:
General readings on nationalism
General readings on nationalism and gender
Case studies on nationalism and gender
International Relations Perspective: Militarization and Gender
The last section on International Relations I’ve included because it was my first introduction to feminist political science, and I am very fond of it. It’s a little away from what I’ve discussed in the post but I find that militarization often offers a very extreme case of the intersections of nationalism and gender relations.
Lastly, I hope you can access the readings. Many of them can be found through Google Scholar, but I don’t know how many are available outside of institutions.
  Standard Works on Nationalism
Anderson, B. (1989). Imagined communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism. Verso.
Bhabha, H. (1990). Nation and Narration. Routledge.
Gellner, E. (1988). Nations and Nationalism. Blackwell.
Smith, A. D. (1995). Nations and Nationalism in a Global Era. Polity Press.
Works at the Theoretical Intersection of Gender and Nationalism
Manchanda, N., & de Haan, L. (2018). Gender, Nation, and Nationalism. In Race, Gender, and Culture in International Relations: Postcolonial Perspectives (pp. 80–98). Routledge.
Nagel, J. (1998). Masculinity and Nationalism: Gender and Sexuality in the Making of Nations. Ethnic and Racial Studies, 21(2), 242–269.
Peterson, V. S. (1999). Political Identities/Nationalism as Heterosexism. International Feminist Journal of Politics, 1(1), 34–65.
Vickers, J. (2011). Gender and State Architecture: The Impact of Governance Structures on Women’s Politics. Politics & Gender, 7(2), 254–262.
Yuval-Davis, N., & Anthias, F. (1989). Woman-Nation-State. Macmillan.
Case Studies on Nationalism and Gender
Ashe, F. (2007). Gendering ethno-nationalist conflict in Northern Ireland: A comparative analysis of nationalist women’s political protests. Ethnic and Racial Studies, 30(5), 766–786.
McDowell, S. (2008). Commemorating Dead ‘Men’: Gendering the Past and Present in Post-Conflict Northern Ireland. Gender, Place and Culture: A Journal of Feminist Geography, 15(4), 335–354.
Van Berkel, L., Molina, L. E., & Mukherjee, S. (2017). Gender Asymmetry in the Construction of American National Identity. Psychology of Women Quarterly, 41(3), 352–367.
Yuval-Davis, N., & Anthias, F. (1989). Woman-Nation-State. Macmillan.
International Relations Perspective: Militarization and Gender
Cockburn, C. (2010). Gender Relations as Causal in Militarization and War. International Feminist Journal of Politics, 12(2), 139–157.
Cohn, C. (1987). Sex and Death in the Rational World of Defense Intellectuals. Journal of Women in Culture and Society, 12, 687–718.
Enloe, C. (1989). Bananas, Beaches, and Bases. Making Feminist Sense of International Politics. Univer.
Tickner, J. A. (1992). Man, the State, and War: Gendered Perspectives on National Security. In Gender in International Relations. Feminist Perspectives on Achieving Global Security (pp. 27–67). Columbia University Press.
I would like to mention at the end that nationalism is shaped by more than just gender differences, even though gender differences are central. That does not mean that other differences aren’t equally important. Specifically questions of race, ethnicity, and class also play into nationalism and it’s touched on in some of the texts, but not in a central way.

I’m just gonna go ahead and do this ask meme myself because I want to.
It’s about books! 
A. Author You’ve Read The Most Books From: Honestly it’s probably Ann M. Martin because I was obsessed with the Babysitter’s Club books when I was younger.
B. Best Sequel Ever: The Subtle Knife, by Philip Pullman
C. Currently Reading: I just started Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, because I wanted something lighthearted and funny.
D. Drink of Choice While Reading: Iced coffee.
E. E-Reader or Physical Books: I have nothing against people who use e-readers and I think they’re great for traveling, but I have an easier time reading physical books. 
F. Fictional Character You Would Have Dated In High School: Literally I have no idea, I didn’t date in high school. Plus most books I read these days are about adults, not teens.
G. Glad You Gave This Book A Chance: The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green. People give this book crap and I get it, but its message moved me. 
H. Hidden Gem Book: Mortal Lessons, by Richard Selzer. It’s a very poetic memoir-ish book written by doctor. It makes you appreciate the human body. 
I. Important Moments of Your Reading Life: The book Cat Walk, by Deborah Gregory, is the first book that made me cry. (I was in third grade.) A Wrinkle in Time, by Madeline L’Engle, was the first book that blew my mind. (I was in fifth grade.) As You Like It was my first Shakespeare. (That was the summer between seventh and eighth grade.) Beloved, by Toni Morrison, made me realize that I could read anything, even if it was really difficult, if I worked hard enough to understand it. (I was in ninth grade.) I have tons more, but I’ll skip to 2016 when I met Mary Roach, one of my favorite authors. 
J. Just Finished: I’m embarrassed, but I haven’t finished a book in a while because of depression. 
K. Kinds of Books You Won’t Read: Uuuuh I guess really dense theory like Judith Butler? Unless I had to for school. Or maybe massmarket paperback romance novels. But even those I’ll read for fun. I’ll read most kinds of books, tbh
L. Longest Book You’ve Read: Fuck idk, when I read The Lord of the Rings it was all in one book so does that count?
M. Major Book Hangover Because Of: I don’t really know how we’re defining book hangover here...I was really made for a really long time after reading The Poisonwood Bible because I hated it. 
N. Number of Bookcases You Own: Three. 
O. One Book That You Have Read Multiple Times: Honestly I really don’t reread books. Angels in America, by Tony Kushner, was assigned several times when I was in college, so I guess that. (I love that play though.) 
P. Preferred Place to Read: My bed! Or the train. 
Q. Quote From A Book That Inspires You/Gives You Feels: “Nothing is ever really wasted, she believed sensibly, even one’s childhood, and then each year, one summer morning, the warm wind would come down the city street where she walked and she would be touched by this little cold thought: I have let more time go by.” from The Haunting of Hill House, by Shirley Jackson
R. Reading Regret: The first book of the Divergent series. God, why did I waste my time? I didn’t finish it. 
S. Series You Started and Need to Finish: I don’t tend to read series these days. If I do, they’re usually just trilogies so I read them all at once. 
T. Three Of Your All-Time Favorite Books: Fuck. This needs some thinking. I’ll get back to you. 
U. Unapologetic Fangirl For: Mary Fuckin’ Roach. But I don’t know why anyone would apologize. I am a fangirl of Jonathan Franzen’s but I am very apologetic for that haha 
W. Worst Bookish Habit: Lately, it’s been sleeping instead of reading on the train. Also I have a really bad memory for what happened in books. I remember how they made me feel, but as for the plot, and even certain characters, I have very little memory. 
V. Very Excited For This Release More Than Any Other: I don’t know of any new releases specifically that I’m excited for, but I will always buy any new books by Mary Roach, Atul Gawande, Siddhartha Mukherjee, Bill Bryson, and Jonathan Franzen. 
X. Marks The Spot (Start On Your Bookshelf And Count to the 27th Book): I’m not at home at the moment so alas I cannot do this one. 
Y. Your Latest Book Purchase: Yesterday I went to a bookstore and bought Good Omens, by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, and The Medical Detectives, by Berton Roueche, which is a collection of his articles from The New Yorker between 1947 and 1988. (He’s the guy that started the “Annals of Medicine” section, which is basically the only section I consistently read)  
Z. ZZZ-Snatcher (last book that kept you up WAY late): House of Leaves, by Mark Z. Danielewski, but I wasn’t reading it, I was just thinking about it and it’s scary so that was keeping me awake. (Still haven’t finished that one.) 
List via The Perpetual Page-Turner
