When did the Pleistocene era begin?
The Paleocene(65.5 - 55.8Ma) is an epoch in the Paleogene Period(65.5 - 23.3Ma).It is also the 1st Epoch of the Cenozoic Era(65.5Ma - Now).It is also in the Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - Now).
What period do we live in now?
Geologically speaking, we are in the Quaternary Period.
How did the Cenozoic era begin?
The Cenozoic Era is currently divided into 3 Periods and 7 Epochs. There is even an argument at the moment for an 8th Epoch,The Cenozoic Eta (65.5 Ma - Now)Paleogene Period (65.5 - 23.03 Ma) Paleocene Epoch (65.5 - 55.8 Ma)(65 mya to 55 mya - Rise of Mammals)Eocene Epoch (55.8 - 33.9 Ma)(55 mya to 38 mya - Saber Tooth Cats, Primitive Horses)Oligpcene Epoch (33.9 - 23.03Ma)(38 mya to 25 mya - First Primates)Neogene Period (23.03 - 2.588 Ma)Miocene Epoch (23.03 - 5.332Ma)(25 mya to 5 mya - Apes)Pliocene Epoch (5.332 - 2.588Ma)(5 mya to 2 mya - First Man)Quaternary Period (2.588 Ma - now) Pleistocene Epoch (2,588 - 11.7 Ka)(2 mya to 10,000 years ago - The Rise of Man)Holocene Epoch (11.7 Ka - Now)(10,000 years ago to present - Modern Man)mya=million years ago
What was the name of the time period 470 million years ago?
470 million years ago was in the Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7 Ma).Phanerozoic Eon (542 Ma - Now)Paleozoic Era (542 - 251Ma)Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7Ma)Middle Ordovician Epoch (471.8 - 460.9Ma)Dapingian Age (471.8 - 468.1Ma)
How is the order from longest to shortest of era period epoch eon?
The Hadian Eon (4576.2 to 4000 Million years) has not been subdivided into recognised Era's. The named Era's from oldest to newest are. Eoarchean Era (4,000 to 3,600 Ma) Paleoarchean Era (3,600 to 3,200 Ma) Mesoarchean Era (3,200 to 2,800 Ma) Neoarchean Era (2,800 to 2,500 Ma) Paleoproterozoic Era (2,500 to 1,600 Ma) Mesoproterozoic Era (1,600 to 1,000 Ma) Neoproterozoic Era (1,000 to 542 Ma) Paleozoic Era (542 to 251 Ma) Mesozoic Era (251 to 65.5 Ma) Cenozoic Era (65.5 Ma to Now)
Differentiate between and eon an era a period and an epoch?
eon is the period now .

What era do you live in now?
We live in the cenozoic era. The Quarternary period. Also in the 5th era.
What period do we live in now?
Geologically speaking, we are in the Quaternary Period.
What geological era are we in right now?
ERA: Cenozoic Era(65 mya to today) PERIOD: Quaternary (1.8 mya to today) EPOCH: Holocene (11,000 years to today)

What geological time period did the Cryolophosaurus live in?
Spinosaurus was thought to have lived from 106 to 93.6 Million years ago.This was in the Albian Age(112 - 99.6Ma) and Cenomanian Age(99.6 - 93.6Ma) of the Cretaceous Period(145.5 - 65.5Ma).They spanned the end of the Lower Cretaceous Epoch(145.5 - 99.6Ma) and the start of the Upper Cretaceous Epoch(99.6 - 65.5Ma). This was in the Mesozoic Era(251 - 65.5Ma) which was part of the Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - Now).
What era and period occurred in 251 to 65 million years ago?
An era is a span of time, so there was no era at that time. It was, however, the end of one era and the beginning of another. More specifically it was the end of the Mesozoic and the beginning of the Cenozoic.
Which epoch are you in now?
The current epoch is the Holocene. It began about 11,700 years ago.
What was the name of the time period 470 million years ago?
470 million years ago was in the Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7 Ma).Phanerozoic Eon (542 Ma - Now)Paleozoic Era (542 - 251Ma)Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7Ma)Middle Ordovician Epoch (471.8 - 460.9Ma)Dapingian Age (471.8 - 468.1Ma)
What is Earths most recent era?
We are currently in the Cenozoioc Era (sub-era Tertiary); the era is divided into 3 periods, starting with the Palaeogene, then the Neogene, & now the Quaternary period. The era before this one was called the Mesozoic Era
What is the period humans live in now?
The 20th century
