Prehistoric, Triassic Landscape


Triassic landscape. The oldest period of the Mesozoic Era. The Triassic encompasses a time frame between about 252 and 201 million years ago that was named for the threefold division of rocks at its type locality in central Germany, where continental redbeds and evaporites are separated by a marine limestone. Characterized by the diversification of land life, the rise of dinosaurs, and the appearance of the earliest mammals. Illustration originally captioned: Triassic (Keuper) landscape by Franz Unger, 1916.
