About 400 million years ago, during the Devonian period, swampy forests were primarily composed of ancient vascular plants, including early forms of trees such as Archaeopteris and various lycophytes. These plants had adaptations for life in wet, swampy conditions and contributed significantly to the formation of peat. The forests were characterized by a diverse array of plant life, including ferns and horsetails, which played a crucial role in shaping Earth’s atmosphere by producing oxygen.
