Where do the names of the periods come from on the geologic time scale?
The names of the periods on the geologic time scale are derived from various sources, primarily reflecting geographic locations, significant fossil discoveries, or notable geological events. For instance, the Cambrian period is named after the Latin name for Wales (Cambria), where rocks from this time were first studied. Other periods, like the Jurassic, take their names from specific regions (like the Jura Mountains) where key rock formations were identified. Overall, these names help convey the historical and geological significance of the times they represent.
