Answer:

In 1819

Step-by-step explanation:

British fossil hunter William Buckland found some fossils in 1819, and he eventually described them and named them in 1824. The whole world was home to these extinct reptiles, but it was British paleontologists who found the fossils and figured out what they were.

I Hope this helped :)
