  1. pliocene epoch

    The Pliocene Epoch is a period in Earth's geologic history that occurred between approximately 5.3 and 2.6 million years ago. It is the second-last epoch in the Neogene period, following the Miocene Epoch and preceding the Pleistocene Epoch. During this time, the continents were close to their current positions, and climate shifts led to cooler and drier conditions worldwide. Prolific changes in both marine and terrestrial life occurred, setting the stage for modern biologic diversity. It also marked the time when our earliest human ancestors began to appear.
