Eons, Eras,Epochs, and period
Eras are great lengths of time but periods are the small amounts of time in eras.
== In geology and paleontology, an eon is the largest division of time. Eons are then divided into eras, and eras are divided into periods. So yes, an era is shorter than an eon. More And then periods are divided into series or epochs
The main periods of geologic time are eons. Then eons are divided into eras. All these divisions are done using geological strata. That is, layers of earth or stone, etc. that represent periods of some kind of similar behavior on the earth.

Eras. I think eons , too.
Eons, Eras,Epochs, and period
Geologic history is divided, from largest amount of time to smallest amount of time, by eons, eras, periods, and epochs.
Geologic history is divided, from largest amount of time to smallest amount of time, by eons, eras, periods, and epochs.
Eras are great lengths of time but periods are the small amounts of time in eras.
The longest periods of the geological time scale are eons. Each eon is divided into eras and each era is made up of periods, which are further divided into epochs. Each division ended when a significant geological event occurred, such as a major ice age ending or a meteor impact resulting in a mass extinction of animal life, etc.

Eras are subdivisions of larger units of geologic time called eons.
An eon is equal to one billion years. Eons are divided into eras which can be specific or non specific periods of time.
