The Mississippian Period was from about 345 million to 325 million years ago. It is part of the Paleozoic Era.
The Mississippian and the Pennsylvanian (325 to 280 MYA) are often grouped together as the Carboniferous Period.
The Carboniferous Period has been divided into the Lower Carboniferous (Mississippian) and the Upper Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian) based on the differing stratigraphy found on different continents. The Mississippian has a stratigraphy that was mostly limestone, and most coal-bearing deposits (not all) were found in the Pennsylvanian.
Redwall limestone was formed during the Mississippian period of the Paleozoic era, approximately 340 million years ago. It is a prominent feature in the Grand Canyon region of the United States.
The Mississippian Period is named after the Mississippi River region in the United States, where the distinctive cultures and societies of this time were first identified and studied. Its type location is considered to be Cahokia, a large pre-Columbian settlement near present-day St. Louis, Missouri.
Redwall Limestone was formed during the Mississippian Period of the Paleozoic Era, around 340 to 330 million years ago. This period was characterized by the development of extensive carbonate platforms and reefs in shallow marine environments.
Buildup of carbon deposits led to surplus oxygen in the atmosphere. Oxygen built up in the Mississippian period and by the end of the carboniferous period, 35% of the atmosphere was oxygen. -nb
Yes. The Mississippian period is a part of the Paleozoic era, along with the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Pennsylvanian, and Permian periods.
At the end of the Wood land period begin
the mississippian period was 40 million years ago, and it is an era of time that scientists use to categorise a point in the earth's geological time.

The Mississippian period is named after the Mississippi River, where the culture and civilization of this time period flourished in North America. This era is known for its mound-building societies that thrived along the Mississippi River and its tributaries.
It mainly comes from Mississippian period of the Paleozoic area and the tertiary period of the Cenozoic area.

The Carboniferous Period has been divided into the Lower Carboniferous (Mississippian) and the Upper Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian) based on the differing stratigraphy found on different continents. The Mississippian has a stratigraphy that was mostly limestone, and most coal-bearing deposits (not all) were found in the Pennsylvanian.
Crinoids and ammonites were the dominant marine life forms during the Mississippian stage of the Carboniferous period.
