The Silurian period followed the Ordovician period.
The Ordovician period came after the Cambrian period.
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)
The Ordovician period follows the extinction at the end of the Cambrian period.
The Ordovician was in the Paleozoic era, and lasted from 505 to 438 million years ago. Trilobites were common then, and the earliest jawless, bony fish.
