How long ago was the age of mammels?
The Age of Mammals, known as the Cenozoic Era, began around 66 million years ago after the extinction of the dinosaurs. This era continues to the present day, making mammals the dominant terrestrial vertebrates for approximately 66 million years. Therefore, the Age of Mammals is still ongoing and has not "ended."

What era has been called the Age of Mammals?

How long did the stone age last?
The Stone Age lasted for around 3.4 million years, beginning around 2.5 million years ago and ending around 3,000 BCE. It is divided into three main periods: the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic.
How long ago have archeologists found remains of mammals?
Archeologists study the remains of Human and therefore only go back as far as the first humans, that is 1-2 million years ago. To study the remains/fossils of the first mammals you need to be a GEOLOGIST (Paleontologist). These scientists have identified that the earliest ancestors of mammals appeared in the Carboniferous period (359.2 to 299 million years ago) and that lineage leading to today's mammals split up in the Jurassic period (That is during the age of the great dinosaurs) - during this period the mammals were only very small animals.
