A dinosaur belonging to the Ceratopsia group, having horns and/or a bony frill on the skull, or the adjective describing such dinosaurs.
From Greek 'keras' (horn) + 'ops' (face), with Latin '-ian' suffix. First coined by paleontologists studying fossilized skulls in the late 1800s.
Ceratopsians ruled the Late Cretaceous landscape like nothing we see today—imagine an animal bigger than a bus with built-in helmet and sword, and you're starting to picture these incredible creatures.
