Cyanobacteria fossils can be dated back to the what while fossils of icthyosaurs indicate that they live during the what?
Cyanobacteria fossils are the oldest known fossils on Earth. Stromatolites found near Shark Bay, Western Australia, which are made by cyanobacteria, have been dated back to 3.5 billion years in the Paleoarchean Era . They survive to modern day. Identical stromatolites are being formed not 15 miles from there 3.5 billion year old fossilised ancestors. Icthyosaurs on the other had appeared in the fossil record about 245 million years ago in the Middle Triassic Epoch. They died out about 90 million years ago in the Upper Cretaceous Epoch, about 25 million years before the KT extinction that saw the deaths of the other great marine reptiles the mosasaurs and the pleisoasurs as well as all non avian dinosaurs.
What is the oldest living or non living thing in the world?
There is no "oldest non-living thing" unless you consider a virus to be non-living, and their evolution cannot be reliably determined. The oldest living things are animals such as tortoises, lobsters, clams and mussels. Colonies of organisms such as funguses, sponges, coral, and aspen trees live a long time because they create or clone new individuals. (see the related questions)

It was the sight of an alleged UFO landing in 1978
A huge crack in the Earth's surface where anthropologists find fossils to study?
The crack in Earth's surface where fossils are found is called a rift valley. Rift valleys are formed when tectonic plates move apart, creating deep fissures where fossils can be exposed and studied by anthropologists to understand past ecosystems and species. These fossil-rich sites provide valuable insights into the history of life on Earth.
What is the place in Africa where archaeologists found fossils?
One of the most famous places in Africa where archaeologists have found fossils is the Great Rift Valley in East Africa. This region, which includes sites like Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania and the Omo Valley in Ethiopia, has provided valuable insights into human evolution and early hominid species.
Which continent has the oldest fossils of early humans found?
Oldest fossils have been found in many areas of the Great Persian Empire. This was in ancient history, when Cyrus The Great ruled Persia. At the time of his rule many archaeologists found fossils dating back to 1 billion years ago from creatures never thought of by any human. Persia is modern day Iran, and is going through many revolutions, however if you ever decide to go there, there is a Museum called, "Kootlet", it contains many of the most ancient fossils ever discovered by man kind! Hope this helps, Mr Smith
Why do scientists study the Great Rift Valley?
Scientists study the Great Rift Valley to better understand Earth's tectonic processes. The valley provides valuable information about the movement of tectonic plates, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains and valleys. Additionally, the region's unique biodiversity and fossil record offer insights into the evolution of life on Earth.
Where did humans first appear?
The oldest known human fossils have been found in Africa, suggesting that humans first appeared on the continent. Specifically, the region known as the Great Rift Valley in East Africa is believed to be one of the earliest inhabited areas by humans.
