Marco Polo the famous explorer actually records the existence of dinosaurs as part of his explorations.

"Here are found snakes and huge serpents, ten paces in length and ten spans in girth ( 50 feet long and 100 inches wide). At the fore part, near the head, they have two short legs, each with three claws, as well as eyes larger than a loaf and very glaring. The jaws are wide enough to swallow a man, the teeth are large and sharp, and their whole appearance is so formidable that neither man, nor any kind of animal can approach them without terror. Others are of smaller size, being eight, six, or five paces long (1961, pp. 158-159)."

Marco Polo is not alone, several other people have recorded the co-existence of dinosaurs with man, including Alexander the Great.
