Markooh is located in Katalom suburb of Ramsar by the Caspian sea. During the construction of a 12-meter-wide road, earth movers sliced the remains of a humongous dinosaur, and destroyed a portion of it, scattering pieces on the unfinished road. Other portions are still intact, and visible in the road side hill, covered with soft clay soil.
