Things you should know about this site
This is not a comprehensive history of paleontology or biology, nor is it the result of systematic research. It's not the work of a professional scientist, educator or historian. It's just an eclectic collection of old illustrations and information.Although this site focuses more on the history of science than on evolution, it treats evolution as a scientific fact, not "just a theory."
