Earth's History in Fossils<br />
Added to Museum Exhibits<br />
The <strong><strong>No</strong>tre</strong> <strong>Dame</strong> Science Museum has<br />
added to its list <strong>of</strong> exhibits a group <strong>of</strong><br />
fossils which represent the history <strong>of</strong><br />
the earth from the Cambrian period, approximately<br />
sixty million years ago, up<br />
to the end <strong>of</strong> the Glacial period. This<br />
new addition to the museum should<br />
benefit students <strong>of</strong> geology, anthropology,<br />
and sociology.<br />
The display, entitled "The Earth's<br />
Geological History Interpreted from<br />
Fossil Life <strong>of</strong> Each Period," shows specimens<br />
characteristic <strong>of</strong> each <strong>of</strong> the thirteen<br />
periods dating back about a billion<br />
and a half years. The various fossils<br />
are arranged chronologically and show<br />
at a glance the periods from which they<br />
came.<br />
Among these are specimens <strong>of</strong> coal<br />
from Pennsylvania, which represent a<br />
period thirty-five million years ago; a<br />
shark tooth <strong>of</strong> six million years; and<br />
two <strong>of</strong> the oldest fossil specimens ever<br />
found in <strong>No</strong>rth America — their age has<br />
been estimated at approximately one<br />
and a half million yeai's.—Bob Savage<br />
