Fun fact: the crustaceous era was from 1996 to 2001. Fast-fossilising flour was a pretty bad idea in hindsight…

Sorry, but the time frame doesn’t fit. Its between 66 and 145 millenia. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous

Its not from the Cretaceous, it’s from the Crustaceous

Except a a millenia is a thousand years, not a million years.
65-145 epochs ago might be the correct wording?
MBM@lemmings.world 6 months ago
If we’re being precise, it’s also one millennium or multiple millennia (knowing Latin plurals is a curse)
bisby@lemmy.world 6 months ago
An epoch is a geological age and not a specific time span. So “65-145 Mya” (million years ago) would be the appropriate label. I can’t seem to find a label for “million years” (other than megaannum, which is just an SI prefix for years, but I don’t think Ive ever heard that used?)

If it’s late then it’s free and that sounds pretty late to me
