Geologically speaking, we are in the Quaternary Period.
The Paleocene(65.5 - 55.8Ma) is an epoch in the Paleogene Period(65.5 - 23.3Ma).It is also the 1st Epoch of the Cenozoic Era(65.5Ma - Now).It is also in the Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - Now).
The Cenozoic era began approximately 66 million years ago after the mass extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs. It is characterized by the diversification of mammals, birds, and other modern groups of organisms.
470 million years ago was in the Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7 Ma).Phanerozoic Eon (542 Ma - Now)Paleozoic Era (542 - 251Ma)Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7Ma)Middle Ordovician Epoch (471.8 - 460.9Ma)Dapingian Age (471.8 - 468.1Ma)
The Hadian Eon (4576.2 to 4000 Million years) has not been subdivided into recognised Era's. The named Era's from oldest to newest are. Eoarchean Era (4,000 to 3,600 Ma) Paleoarchean Era (3,600 to 3,200 Ma) Mesoarchean Era (3,200 to 2,800 Ma) Neoarchean Era (2,800 to 2,500 Ma) Paleoproterozoic Era (2,500 to 1,600 Ma) Mesoproterozoic Era (1,600 to 1,000 Ma) Neoproterozoic Era (1,000 to 542 Ma) Paleozoic Era (542 to 251 Ma) Mesozoic Era (251 to 65.5 Ma) Cenozoic Era (65.5 Ma to Now)
We live in the cenozoic era. The Quarternary period. Also in the 5th era.
Geologically speaking, we are in the Quaternary Period.
An eon is the largest division of geologic time, lasting billions of years. An era is a subdivision of an eon, typically lasting hundreds of millions of years. A period is a smaller division of geologic time, lasting millions of years, and an epoch is an even smaller division of time, typically lasting tens of millions of years.
The Paleocene(65.5 - 55.8Ma) is an epoch in the Paleogene Period(65.5 - 23.3Ma).It is also the 1st Epoch of the Cenozoic Era(65.5Ma - Now).It is also in the Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - Now).
We are currently in the Quaternary period, which is the most recent geological period within the Cenozoic era. The Quaternary period began approximately 2.6 million years ago and is characterized by the presence of ice ages and the evolution of early humans.
Spinosaurus was thought to have lived from 106 to 93.6 Million years ago.This was in the Albian Age(112 - 99.6Ma) and Cenomanian Age(99.6 - 93.6Ma) of the Cretaceous Period(145.5 - 65.5Ma).They spanned the end of the Lower Cretaceous Epoch(145.5 - 99.6Ma) and the start of the Upper Cretaceous Epoch(99.6 - 65.5Ma). This was in the Mesozoic Era(251 - 65.5Ma) which was part of the Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - Now).
The Tertiary Period (including the Pliocene, Miocene, Oligocene, Eocene, and Paleocene Epochs) lasted from about 65 million years ago to 1.8 million years ago. It is part of the Cenozoic Era, along with the Quarternary Period.
The Cenozoic era began approximately 66 million years ago after the mass extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs. It is characterized by the diversification of mammals, birds, and other modern groups of organisms.
An era is a span of time, so there was no era at that time. It was, however, the end of one era and the beginning of another. More specifically it was the end of the Mesozoic and the beginning of the Cenozoic.
470 million years ago was in the Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7 Ma).Phanerozoic Eon (542 Ma - Now)Paleozoic Era (542 - 251Ma)Ordovician Period (488.3 - 443.7Ma)Middle Ordovician Epoch (471.8 - 460.9Ma)Dapingian Age (471.8 - 468.1Ma)
