Since then, we've travelled a long way through time, spanning many millions of years. We began the Paleozoic with the Cambrian, then moved on to the Ordovician, which succeeded it. Now it's time to learn more about the Silurian. This third stage in the history of the Paleozoic promises to be just as rich in discoveries. Unlike its predecessors, the Silurian period is relatively short - around 25 million years. In fact, it's the shortest of all the Paleozoic eras. Other eras, such as the Cambrian, lasted nearly 56 million years, and the Ordovician, the period preceding the Silurian, lasted nearly 42 million years. The Devonian, which followed, lasted almost 57 million years. If geologists have differentiated the Silurian period from the Ordovician and Devonian, it's because it's s
