The Eocene was the last, yet most glorious chapter in the history
of chasmosaurines. While North America was ruled by the massive Brontoceratops,
Eurasia was a home to another ceratopsian giant. The chasmosaurine ancestors
of Gigantops had crossed the land bridge between Asia and North
America during the early Eocene and at tthe time ruled all the northern
continents. Gigantops was quite likely the largest of the Eurasian
chasmosaurines with a head as long as that of Torosaurus, even though
the neck frill of Gigantops was proportionally shorter.
