Wikipedia

  1. archaeozoic

    The Archean Eon ( ar-KEE-ən, also spelled Archaean or Archæan) is the second of four geologic eons of Earth's history and by definition representing the time from 4 to 2.5 billion years ago. The Archean was preceded by the Hadean Eon and followed by the Proterozoic. The Earth during the Archean was mostly a water world: there was continental crust, but much of it was under an ocean deeper than today's ocean. Except for some trace minerals, today's oldest continental crust dates back to the Archean. Much of the geological detail of the Archean has been destroyed by subsequent activity. The earliest known life started in the Archean. Life was simple throughout the Archean, mostly represented by shallow-water microbial mats called stromatolites, and the atmosphere lacked free oxygen.

    The Archaeozoic era, also known as the Archean, is a geologic era that occurred about 4 billion to 2.5 billion years ago. During this time, the Earth's crust had cooled enough to form continents and early life, including simple bacteria and archaea, primarily started to emerge. This period is known for its high volcanic activity and the appearance of Earth's first stable crust.
