Throwing It Way Back! #TBT Pretty Groovy, Right? It's A Map Of Pangea - A Supercontinent That Formed

Throwing it way back! #TBT Pretty groovy, right? It's a map of Pangea - a supercontinent that formed roughly 300 million years ago - mapped with contemporary geopolitical borders. What you see here is an anachronistic mashup - a modern map, complete with geological features that did not exist 300-million years ago, with its various parts relocated to the general position they would have occupied before Pangea began rifting apart some 200-million years ago. It's a view of the supercontinent not often seen, and a mind-bending way of relating to the world on a geological time scale. #Pangea #ThrowbackThursday #supercontinent #ContinentalDrift
