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 />
