“Rocks of the Rocky: What Do We Know After 175 Years of Investigation”

 

The famous British geologist Charles Lyell visited the Rocky River in 1842. Other geologists followed, documenting and interpreting the great stacks of rock, and the fossils found in them, along the Rocky. Joe Hannibal from The Cleveland Museum of Natural History, will introduce these geologists and their findings, ranging from tiny microfossils and wormy things to the fearsome fish Dunkleosteus, over the last 175 years.
