From Dinosaur Heresies ... "like biological ancient romans, [ornate dinosaurs] had supposedly lost control of their adaptive sense and hastened to their doom amid orgies of useless ornamentation."
Oslo from DH "[Coal Age] larval amphibians are fossils of unexcelled loveliness." Beautiful eh? Those may not be from the coal age though - tough to find, just ask Robert Bakker.
From Suetonius' biography of Vespasian "a stray dog picked up a human hand at the cross-roads, which it brought into the room where Vespasian was breakfasting and dropped under the table"
How do they compare? I think the answer is very well. Romans and Dinosaurs both liked sex with the well decorated and were often losing body parts.
