520    In early July 1899, an excavation team of paleontologists 
       sponsored by Andrew Carnegie discovered the fossil remains
       in Wyoming of what was then the longest and largest 
       dinosaur on record. Named after its benefactor, the 
       Diplodocus carnegii--or Dippy, as it's known today--was 
       shipped to Pittsburgh and later mounted and unveiled at 
       the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in 1907. Carnegie's
       pursuit of dinosaurs in the American West and the ensuing 
       dinomania of the late nineteenth century coincided with 
       his broader political ambitions to establish a lasting 
       world peace and avoid further international conflict. An 
       ardent philanthropist and patriot, Carnegie gifted his 
       first plaster cast of Dippy to the British Museum at the 
       behest of King Edward VII in 1902, an impulsive diplomatic
       gesture that would result in the donation of at least 
       seven reproductions to museums across Europe and Latin 
       America over the next decade, in England, Germany, France,
       Austria, Italy, Russia, Argentina, and Spain. In this 
       largely untold history, Ilja Nieuwland explores the 
       influence of Andrew Carnegie's prized skeleton on European
       culture through the dissemination, reception, and agency 
       of his plaster casts, revealing much about the social, 
       political, cultural, and scientific context of the early 
       twentieth century.
