FOSSIL SPECIMENS DISCOVERED IN THE CZECH

REPUBLIC

Much of the geographical structure of the Czech Republic consists of a mountainous area in the

region of Bohemia. This area, some 900 meters (2953 feet) above sea level, is rich in fossils.
In addition to fossil micro-organisms dating back to the Proterozoic Period (2.5 billion to 545 million
years ago), many fossil from the Cambrian (543 to 490 million years) and Devonian periods (417 to 354

million years ago) have also been discovered. Among the most striking of these are 1,300 different
trilobite species. These are known as Barrende trilobites because some 300 of them were named by the
French paleontologist Joachim Barrende. One of the areas in which Barrende trilobites are most
frequently encountered is the Jince Formation. Fossil specimens of many marine creatures from the
Paleozoic Period (543 to 251million years ago)

have also been unearthed from Jince, which is
known to have had a cold climate during the
Cambrian Period.

The rich fossil sources in the Czech
Republic are important to our understanding of
natural history, since these findings show that
no evolutionary process of the kind claimed by
Darwinists ever took place. Living things did

not descend from a supposed common
ancestor, as Darwinists maintain, and every
species appears suddenly in the fossil record,

with its own unique characteristics. This fact,
important evidence of creation, has dealt a
severe blow to Darwinism.

Fossils millions of years old are gathered from
Bohemia, famous for its rich fossil beds. Each one
of these fossil specimens reveals that these living
beings did not evolve, but were created by God.
