Australopithecus
Tiktaalik
Lepidodendron
Cooksonia
Wiwaxia
and the nameless multitude of Pre-Cambrian microbes.

Love it!
Happy ALL saints day to you!
Thank you, and the same to you.
They are gone but their spirits live on in coils of DNA.
And maybe a small part of the altar for them tomorrow (Dia de los Muertos)….
Yes! All Souls.
Thanks for the poke. I had to look up at least a couple because their names are so poetic.
Ah, yes!!!!
And!
Back atcha !!!!
To be sure, we are all, all beings in the universe, linked to one original Being from which all matter and all manner of creatures arose. We are all one, and whole, and holy.
Good thinking! There are a number of slag heaps in northeastern PA where lepidodendron fossils can be found, along with fossil calamites, sigillaria and their stigmarian roots… the better to remember them by.
Temples to the ancestors!
Wonderful post! Bless these saints for all of you like-minded people!
Wow- what awesome sounding and looking names, and what cool creatures. Thanks for getting me to look up these weird words and expanding my awareness. I always look forward to learning something new from your blog!
You and all your responders bring me back to the sacredness of the earth. It is so easy to forget.
Thanks to all of you.
