Rocks and Landforms During the Permian The rocks and landforms were very interesting during the [|Permian time period] since much of the land was moving. The plate tectonics were constantly shifting to different places causing many landforms to be created. Some of the landforms that wer e created were long mountain ranges and vast deserts. These new landforms were caused by constant volcanic eruptions and plate tectonics moving persistently. Many of the fossils were found throughout time giving us a glimpse of what things wer e like during this time. Many fossils from the Permian time period were found in Texas, Southern China, and South America. Some of the fossils found included Trimerorhachis which was a vertebrate found in Texas, Lebachia Piniformis that was a plant that was found in New Mexico and Peniculauris Bassi which was an invertebrate found in Arizona. All these fossils let us know what was living during this time and let us see the evolution of animals and plants throughout time.
