    How did the Oligocene period get its name?
    The name ‘Miocene’ was given by Charles Lyell, a Scottish author. This name comes from the Greek word ‘meiōn’ which means ‘less’ and from the word καινός which means ‘new’ this together means ‘less recent’. The Miocene period is preceded by the Oligocene period which is followed by the Pliocene period.

    What does Oligocene epoch mean?
    The Oligocene is the third and final epoch of the Paleogene Period. The Oligocene is often considered an important time of transition, a link between the archaic world of the tropical Eocene and the more modern ecosystems of the Miocene. Major changes during the Oligocene included a global expansion of grasslands, and a regression of tropical broad leaf forests to the equatorial belt.

    The Oligocene is a geologic epoch of the Paleogene Period and extends from about 33.9 million to 23 million years before the present (33.9±0.1 to 23.03±0.05 Ma). As with other older geologic periods, the rock beds that define the epoch are well identified but the exact dates of the start and end of the epoch are slightly uncertain. The name Oligocene was coined in 1854 by the German paleontologist Heinrich Ernst Beyrichfrom his studies of marine beds in Belgium and Germany. T…

    The Oligocene Epoch, right smack in the middle of the Tertiary Period (and end of the Paleogene), lasted from about 33.9 to 23 million years ago.* Although it lasted a "short" 11 million years, a number of major changes occurred during this time.

    While the Oligocene epoch was still fairly temperate by modern standards, this 10-million-year stretch of geologic time saw a decrease in both average global temperatures and sea levels. All of the world's continents were well on their way toward moving into their present positions; the most striking change occurred in …
