The Lier mammoth is the skeleton of a mammoth that was found in 1860 near the Dungelhoeffkazerne in Lier in the Province of Antwerp of Belgium, while digging the diversion canal of the Nete. Its importance was recognised by a military doctor stationed in Lier, François-Joseph Scohy, and the skeleton was excavated, mounted and in 1869 for the first time shown to the public. This was a first skeleton of a mammoth for Western Europe. Only the museum of Saint Petersburg was already in possession of a mammoth skeleton. Because the skeleton is not complete, some bones were recreated in wood.

  • De mammoet van Lier is het skelet van een wolharige mammoet dat in 1860 werd gevonden in de buurt van de Dungelhoeffkazerne, tijdens het graven van de Afleidingsvaart van de Nete. Het skelet werd opgegraven, gemonteerd en in 1869 voor het eerst aan het publiek getoond. Dit vormde een première voor West-Europa. Alleen het museum van Sint-Petersburg was toen reeds in het bezit van een mammoetskelet. Aangezien het skelet niet volledig is, werden enkele botten nagemaakt in hout. (nl)
