Studying the beginnings of plate tectonics is challenging due to the limited geological record from Earth’s early history, as much of the crust has been recycled or altered over billions of years. Additionally, early tectonic activity likely occurred in conditions that differ significantly from those we observe today, making it difficult to interpret ancient geological features. The scarcity of direct evidence, such as ancient rock formations and the complexities of Earth's early mantle dynamics, further complicate our understanding of the processes involved in the onset of plate tectonics.
