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

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

      Except a millennium millenia is a thousand years, not a million years.

      65-145 epochs ago might be the correct wording?

      “Mya” would be the correct term.

      Edit: corrections from MBM, bisby.

        If we’re being precise, it’s also one millennium or multiple millennia (knowing Latin plurals is a curse)

        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?)

          You’re right — the first result I stumbled upon was the Simple wikipedia result which erroneously calls an epoch 1,000,000 years ( simple wiki link ).

          Megaanum was also a common side effect of rear encounters with legendary adult performer John Holmes

    Millenia is thousands, epoch “Mya” is million years ago.

    But as my stat mech professor once said, “what’s a few orders of magnitude between friends?”

    Edit: thanks to bisby, MBM.

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