                     The fossils unearthed in Cambrian rocks belonged to complex
                     invertebrate species like snails, trilobites, sponges, worms,
                     jelly fish, starfish, marine crustaceans and sea lilies. Most in-
                     terestingly, all of these distinct species emerged all of a sud-
                     den. For that reason, this miraculous phenomenon is referred
                     to as the "Cambrian Explosion" in geological literature.
