is defined as "the ordering and analysis of the Earth's layers (known as a bed or strata) based on chronological dating techniques and relative positions with each other" (Doney et al., 2019)

Stratigraphy

Also known as an eonothem in stratigraphy, this is the largest time division, lasting billions of years [Gk. aion, "age, lifetime, eternity"]

Eon

Also known as an erathem in stratigraphy, this is a subdivision of an eon, scaling hundreds of millions of years (Lat. aera, "calculator counter

Era

Also called a system in stratigraphy, this is a subdivision of an era, lasting tens of millions of years (Gk, periodos, cycle, going around

Period

Also called as a series in stratigraphy, this is a subdivision of a penod, lasting around several milion years. Epochs also contain smaller timeline units called "ages" that represent a few million years [Gk. epokhe, "fixed point of time, stoppage]

Epoch

It is called a supereon because it contains three (3) different eons that highlight the significant events in its early life (about % of the Earth's history)

The Precambrian Supereon

This the earliest iteration of the Earth, with its earliest materials becoming almost nonexistent in the present time

Hadean Eon: The Burning Earth

This period is still the most poorly understood eon despite recent discoveries because of how long it transitions to the next.

Archaean Eon: The First Rain

Also known as the cryptozoic cryptoa eon. it is the period where life began to dominate the Earth's surface.

Proterazoic Eon: The First Freezer

Also known as the Age of Invertebrates, it is the period where eukaryotes began to dominate the scene

Paleozoic Era

Evolved organisms began to speciate (e, develop to do specific tasks), also known as the "major diversification of animal life.

Ordovician Period

The very first reshwater fish came to be during this period.

Silurian Period

This marks the first extinction of eukaryotes.

Ordovician period

It is known as the Age of the Fish due to the enormous diversification and speciation of fish.

Devonian period

There have been records of limestone, sandstone, shale, and coal dating back to this period.

Carboniferous Period

Also known as the Age of Reptiles or Age of the Dinosaurs

Mesozoic era

it is the period where the Earth began to recover from its third extinction. It is a period of massive tectonic, climatic, and evolutionary activities.

Mesozoic era

Also known as the Age of Mammals Lat. mamma, breast, bosom", it is the period where mammals began to dominate the periods, but each has been divided into Earth

Cenozoic era

The period's name roughly translates as the "old part of the Eocene."

Paleogene

This is the period after the last Ice Age.

Holocene

the boom of life all over Earth

Proterozoic

the first rain and birth of early extremophiles

Archaean

burning Earth

Hadean

The longest part of Earth's history

The precambrian supereon

It was called __ because it came before Cambrian Period, the point where life began to flourish.

Pre-Cambrian

is the period when Earth was still a molten fireball.

Hadean Eon

is the period when prokaryotes began to flourish.

Archaean Eon

During this eon, organisms began to develop reproduction as a form of procreation, ensuring that the species will never die out.

Proterozoic Eon

It was called because in Greek, phanerozoic means, "evident with life"

phanerozoic eon

is the period of Earth when Invertebrates and marine organisms dominate over Earth. It was also the period when plants began to flourish, and the Earth is slowly becoming habitable due to the evolution of organisms capable of photosynthesis, which can sustain complex organisms.

Paleozoic era

is the period of Earth when Reptiles became the dominant life forms in the form of dinosaurs.

Mesozoic era

first primates evolved

cretaceans

First dinosaurs

Jurassic

Marine animals

Cambrian

Belong to the specific family

Ordovician

Fish evolved in freshwater and saltwater

Sulirian

Age of fish

Devonian

Pangea

Permian
