'''Saurischia''' (Greek: ''σαυρος'' ''sauros''; and ''ισχιον'' ''ischion''; "lizard-hipped"), one of the two major orders of the [[dinosaurs]] which were arranged in 1888 on the basis of many species sharing a common structure of the [[pelvis|pelvic]] bones. Saurischian dinosaurs are again divided into two suborders: the [[Theropoda]] - carnivorous dinosaurs including ''[[Tyrannosaurus rex]]''; and [[Sauropodomorpha]], which were mainly long-necked herbivores, some of which were the largest animals to have walked the earth.
