Secrets of the Dead - Graveyard of the Giant Beasts (2016)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
A mining operation in Cerrejón, Northern Colombia, opened a window into a previously unknown period of the earth's history, where a world teeming with giant creatures emerged. The biggest of them all was Titanoboa - a 43-foot snake, the largest that ever lived.

It is necessary to say that it is illegal in the UK to:

-deliberately kill, injure, disturb or capture them

-deliberately take or destroy their eggs

-damage or destroy their breeding sites and resting places (including when the smooth snakes or sand lizards are not present)

-possess, control or transport them (or any part, alive or dead)

-sell, offer, or publish an advert to sell them.


For smooth snakes and sand lizards, it is also an offence under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to intentionally or recklessly:

-disturb them while they occupy a structure or place used for shelter or protection

-obstruct access to a place of shelter or protection

-possess or transport them (or any part, alive or dead)

-sell, offer, or publish an advert to sell them

Other native reptiles are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. It is an offence to intentionally kill or injure them, possess or transport them (or any part, alive or dead), sell, offer, or publish an advert to sell: adders, grass snakes, common or viviparous lizards, slow worms.

Any part of the exhibit is within the law. For bones, skin, etc, these were collected legally as there is no intent to sell them and proof that it wasn't killed intentionally but rather from natural or unknown causes. Other parts like sheds, faeces, etc, were also obtained legally or are under certificate.

# data[].attributes.body
The idea for this exhibit originated from my ever-growing passion for snakes and a particular interest in the extinct giant snake Titanoboa, which existed 60 million years ago. The Titanoboa Exhibit Project, as such, began in mid-January 2025 when I considered a CAS project related to my passion for snakes. At first, I thought it would take too much time from me to do such a project, but I started and saw it building up more and more, so I decided I was going to make it.

I originally planned to transport the Titanoboa Exhibit this way.

# data[].attributes.body
In total, I made for this project alone:

- 1 PowerPoint presentation with over 100 slides covering my passion, the Titanoboa, other related snakes, discoveries, hypotheses, 3D scans, scientific papers I read, drawings, diagrams, charts, data tables, paleoarts and more.

- the same presentation, but summarised into 53 slides to be printed and put in the physical exhibit

- 32 3D printed 3D models, some simple, some less simple that I found from museum collections and various other websites including some I had to request from specific scientists, as they weren't public.

- 1 wooden sculpture of the Titanoboa

- 8 sculptures of snakes (made with FIMO clay) doing various activities like eating, digesting, incubating, etc.

- an organised ring binder in which there is a part of the Exhibit + extra documents and photos.

- 1 full Padlet (https://islgroup.padlet.org/lo05336/titanoboa-exhibit-lxitggwpf1xgi2db) that has photos of everything from the physical exhibit I did, including explanations, scientific and educational papers, images, videos, paleoarts, drawings, documentaries, the PowerPoint presentation, as well as the process I went through to make the physical exhibit. This Padlet is in constant evolution, just like the project itself, and I will likely make new changes in the future to add or update posts.

For the physical exhibit, I also brought fossils, sloughs/sheds, a snake skull replica, snake bones, a snake skin, faeces and urates from my “personal collection” (every part of the exhibit was obtained ethically - snake rests including the bones and skin were found from dead specimens by me a long time ago, sheds, feces, and urates are from my snake Saura, or they were given to me by other snake owners or they were found in nature by me or someone else who gave them to me).

About 59 million years ago, the largest animal lurking in the ancient forests of Colombia by far was Titanoboa - the largest snake ever known. It’s only been in the past few years that we’ve put together the many pieces of this puzzling creature, but it turns out that the greatest snake that the world ever saw was made possible by a warming planet.

This marks the end of the Titanoboa Exhibit. At least for now...

I want to acknowledge here a few people who helped me to make such an exhibit possible because...

This project wouldn’t have reached the finish line, and you wouldn't be reading these lines without the participation of a handful of people who accompanied me throughout its realisation, leading it to its best version. I sincerely wish to thank:

Mr.Gouttenoire, who helped bring this project to life by guiding me towards realistic goals in order for it to develop into something meaningful.

Mrs. Brumpton, whose open-mindedness and support allowed me to display this super cool exhibit for the first time in the library of the International School of London.

Mr.Byron , for his patience and understanding of my project, as well as his help in printing these complex and time-consuming 3D models.

Dr.Alex Hastings, one of the palaeontologists who discovered Titanoboa’s existence. Without his expertise, this project might not have stood on solid ground. He generously gave me some of his time to help me and answer my numerous questions.

My parents, for their support and motivation. They encouraged me to start a project I wouldn't have started nor brought so close to a conclusion.

You’ve heard of Titanoboa, right? That giant snake from prehistoric times that could swallow a crocodile whole? 😱 Well, scientists just found fossils of even scarier snakes that might’ve made Titanoboa think twice. These ancient beasts lived millions of years ago and were massive, with fangs and bones that suggest they were top predators. What’s wild is that they lived in a time when the Earth was super hot and steamy—perfect for giant reptiles. Just imagining these snakes slithering through the jungle is enough to give you chills!

Alchemy was the ancient art that tried to transform base metals into gold and create a medicine that would cure any illness. The ancient chemists failed, but half a billion years before them nature succeeded. Venom and poison are cocktails of death. The creatures that carry the deadly toxins are often the creatures of our nightmares. Yet, venom is one of nature’s greatest masterpieces, and those organisms that combine individually innocuous chemicals into fatal mixtures are indeed nature’s deadly alchemists. Venomous animals have evolved and adapted to almost every corner of the planet. They come in all shapes and sizes with venoms and poisons that are constantly changing. The story of venom is an intriguing story of evolution; over half a billion years ago poison and venom were nature’s ultimate weapons, and they still are today.
