DEATHWATCH BEETLE
Age: 45 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Baltic States, Russia
Darwin claimed that all living species attained their present complex structures by undergoing
small, gradual changes. According to his imaginary claim, an extremely lengthy evolutionary
process must have taken place, and primitive and half-developed transitional life forms must once
have existed in the past.
In addition, there should be a large number of fossils belonging to such creatures in the geologic
strata of the Earth. However, the fossil record provides not a single example of any semi-devel-
oped or supposedly "primitive" life forms whose discovery Darwin predicted. As can clearly be
seen in the fossil record, as well as in the 45-million-year-old deathwatch beetle pictured, the fact
is that living fossils reveal the fact of Creation.
