Re: The Lost Forest

Absolutely fantastic. So much new stuff can be learned about our beginnings by the palaeobotanists and, if animal bones are also found and there's no reason why they shouldn't be, the palaeontologists will have a field day.

It makes one ponder what other treasures this earth is hiding both on land and in the sea, from millions of years ago.
