BlLLI0N-Y -YEAR-OLD
FOSSILS ARE FOUND
Trilobites, Which Existed Before
Land Life eWas Known,
Collected.

Fossil deposits OF the earliest known
animal life on earth, dating back be-
tween one and two billion years, were
gathered this Summer in Utah and
Montana by DR.. Charles Z. Resser
and Erwin r. Pohl, Smithsonian In
stitution raleontologists.
These fossils, found in rocks Of the
Cambrain period, consist mainly Of
trtlobites-a crustacean line which
became extinct about the time the
coal measures were laid down. Their
closest living relatives are the brine
shrimps-curiOus creatures abundant
in the Great Salt Lake and in the
Dead Sea.
About 100000 years ago they were
the dominant life in the sea. At that
time there was no life on land. Up
to the present about 1900 different
species have been identified. There
probably are many more.
Very few fossils have been found
in rocks older than the Cambrain.
Fifty years ago biologists believed
that the Ardivician age, two periods
later than the Cambrain, contained
the earliest life forms, and it is largely
due to the work Of DR.. Charles d.
Walcott, secretary of the Smitso.
nian. that concrete evidence first was
gathered to support theory of Cam
