There are lots of things I didn't see for myself. I never saw Thomas Jefferson. I've never seen the pyramids of Egypt, nor heard a single shot fired in the War Between the States. But I have no doubt that those things are/were real.

there were people around to attest to the fact Jefferson existed..plus..he left behind his own evidence to his existance.
The pyramids still exist...and eyewitnesses to the Civil War left behind copious documentation.
I have yet to see an eyewitness account of the extinction of the dinasours.
There are clues...and then there are many different interpretations as to what the clues mean.
meanwhile...more clues are discovered that may contradict previous clues, or show us that previous scenarios are not correct.
And this will continue endlessly because no dinsasaours left behind detailed accounts of what happened to them.
