** Not Dinosaurs But: Tiny fossils may show complex life evolved early
Dug up from Chinese phosphate mines, they provide the most ancient evidence

children up onto the sculpture to take a picture"

Dr Neil Clark, who found the footprint on the Isle of Skye, said: "It was
probably only 20cm in size which is about the same as a sparrow
