The Silurian hypothesis is a thought experiment, [1] which assesses modern science's ability to detect evidence of a prior advanced civilization, perhaps several million years ago. The most probable clues for such a civilization could be carbon, radioactive elements or temperature variation.
The Silurian was the first period to see megafossils of extensive terrestrial biota in the form of moss-like miniature forests along lakes and streams and networks of large, mycorrhizal nematophytes, heralding the beginning of the Silurian-Devonian Terrestrial Revolution.

This timeline of Silurian research is a chronological listing of events in the history of geology and paleontology focused on the study of Earth during the span of time lasting from 443.4–419.2 million years ago; the Silurian, and the legacies of this period in the rock and fossil records.
The Silurian (443.7 to 416.0 million years ago)* was a time when the Earth underwent considerable changes that had important repercussions for the environment and life within it. One result of these changes was the melting of large glacial formations.
