n. A supercontinent that existed from the the end of the Permian to the Jurassic, assembled from large continents like Euramerica, Gondwana, and Siberia, as well as smaller landmasses like the Cathaysian and Cimmerian terranes; Greek for “all lands.
The name given to a super-continent - when most of the world's continents were assembled together. This happened about 250 million years ago.
The single continent formed 400 MYA from collision of the ancient continents of Gondwanaland, Laurentia, and others.
The supercontinent that existed from 300 to 200 million years ago. It combined most of the continental crust of the Earth, from which the present continents were derived by fragmentation and movement away from each other by means of plate tectonics. During an intermediate stage of the fragmentation, between the existence of Pangea and that of the present widely separated continents, Pangea was split into two large fragments, Laurasia on the north and Gondwana in the southern hemisphere.
The name given to the single land mass, that occurred near the end of the Paleozoic era, when all the earth's tectonic plates where very close to each other.
a supercontinent that included all the landmasses of the earth
(plate tectonics) a hypothetical continent including all the landmass of the earth prior to the Triassic period when it split into Laurasia and Gondwanaland
the name given to a supercontinent that formed by collision of all the continental crust.
The primeval continental mass. Pangea split during the cretaceous period into Gondwanaland and Laurasia which split further to form the present continental masses.
The super continent that broke apart 200 million years ago to form the present continents.
The name given to the Supercontinent that existed from the end of the Triassic period. Such was the continent's size, that it stretched from pole to pole, before breaking apart as the Atlantic ocean opened.
a hypothetical supercontinent that included all the land masses of the earth before the Triassic period, when continental droft began with the breaking away of the northern group (Laurasia) from the southern group (Gondwana). [AHDOS
