Description

 

Fossils and Archeology is a Forge and Fabric mod that offers a variety of prehistoric creatures that are brought back to life through discovering bones, extracting DNA, creating Embryos, and making eggs. Along with dinosaurs there are other prehistoric creatures such as mammoths, smilodons, terror birds, dodos, and more. There are currently 60+ prehistoric creatures added by the mod!

Alongside with the new mobs you are able to make, there is an archaeological aspect for the people who like to explore more or collect beautiful new blocks. Fossils and Archeology Revival also now has built-in support for Farmer's Delight, Roughly Enough Items and Jade.

To run the mod you need the following mods:

Architectury
GeckoLib
More Hitboxes
Terrablender(Forge only) 

Terrablender(Fabric only)
Fabric API (Fabric only)

Thank you all for the continued patience! We are proud to have made the jump to 1.18.2 after so many years of what basically amounts to rewriting everything from scratch. We are very thankful for everyone that continued to have hope in us even when in times everything seemed hopeless. As for the people who gave up, we hope that we'll see you again when you rediscover our mod! Next update should take much less time... hopefully haha!

Fossils and Archeology first started off in Minecraft beta 1.7.2 under the original author, Flammarilva and Team July. Since going open source at the end of 2012, the Revival project started under a new team and has been going since.
