A small portion of the vertebrae is also kept on a black cloth in the upper room of the museum.
The vestiges of the spinal vertebra of Austroposeidon magnificus were as big as a microwave oven.
Austroposeidon Magnificus is believed to be the cousin of the largest dinosaur uncovered in Argentina called the Argentinosaurus Huinculensis.
To put that in context, the legendary Tyrannosaurus rex was just five meters high and 13 meters in length, while the giraffe-like Brachiosaurus was 23 meters long and 12 meters high.
The team says that Austroposeidon magnificus was a herbivore that lived about 70 million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period, in the woodlands and swamps of southern Brazil.
