Paleontology Without Walls

Many people think paleontology is the study of fossils. In fact, paleontology is much more.

We have set up the exhibits in our museum so that you may start viewing them by choosing one of three topics: phylogeny, or the "family tree" of life, geological time, or the temporal existence of groups of organisms, or history of evolutionary thought, which explores evolutionary thought by introducing topics and scientists. By clicking on the appropriate button you will begin exploring the exhibits from one of these three points of view.

This museum is full of information. Therefore, in order to aid our virtual visitors, we have developed some navigation tools that allow you to travel to any of our exhibits on organisms or geological time periods. Try clicking on the icons below to see how they work.
