Pegasus Prehistory by the metre

Prehistory at your fingertips. The Geological Measuring Stick: How long did the Earth's ancient history last? Which era preceded the Jurassic? When did the sail-backed dinosaur Dimetrodon roam the Earth? And how many millions of years ago did the first vertebrates venture onto land and into the skies? In collaboration with the renowned Senckenberg Research Institute and Natural History Museum, this four-color printed Geological Measuring Stick brings billions of years of Earth history to life. From the Precambrian to the Quaternary, the Geological Measuring Stick illustrates each epoch in words and images, inch by inch. As with the Art Measuring Stick, the front side of the Geological Measuring Stick features a four-color print depicting the development of life. On the back, there is a millimeter scale alongside explanations of the images on the front, as well as a scaled timeline of the entire Earth's history, showing the continental drift from ancient times to the present. The Geological Measuring Stick is the perfect gift for students, teachers, and children of all ages. This transformed measuring stick provides an enlightening overview of 5 billion years of prehistory and allows for a journey back to the distant past, to the beginnings of life on our planet.
