Carboniferous
Carboniferous Fifth geological division of the
Palaeozoic era, lasting from 360 to 286 million years ago. It is often called the ‘Age of Coal’ because of its extensive swampy forests of conifers and tree ferns that turned into most of today's coal deposits. Amphibians flourished, marine life abounded in warm, inland seas, and the first reptiles appeared.
