Mozilla’s latest logo may be a prehistoric throwback.

The company updated its existing “Moz://a” logo on a recent blog post, and German blogger Sören Hentzschel has spotted a new symbol in some Github code commits that may be used alongside it.

It could represent a flag, but it also looks like a dinosaur thanks to that eye-like dot — which might be a cryptic nod to the Mozilla Foundation’s old mascot.

A side by side comparison of Mozilla’s old dino logo and the new symbol found in code comits.
The red dino logo designed by Shepard Fairey (left) was retired by the company in 2012, but the new symbol (right) might be a nice homage.
