The owners of fossilized remains of a dinosaur skull are paying tribute to Ozzy Osbourne. The Triceratops skull, which is about 66-to-68-million-years-old, was named after the rock star.

The Geoworld Paleontological Laboratory says the fossil "instantly evokes the gesture of the horns," which is a recognized symbol in rock culture and "in line with the mystical themes of the music of Black Sabbath."

The Triceratops skull is set to go on public display at the Tucson Gem and Mineral show later this month.
