T h e P e r m i a n The[| Permian time period] happened 286-245 million years ago. It was named the Permian after the city of Perm in Russia, which is a typical nickname for the Permian time period. This time period is well known for being the time period before the dinosaurs evolved d uring the Triassic but it is also known for when Pangaea occurred. Pangaea was when all the continents in the world came together to form one super continent. This had begun before, Pangaea had progressed the most in the Carboniferous when most of the land was close to coming together. Since Pangaea had been completed during this time period this caused the largest mass extinction ever. But thankfully, some of the mammal like organisms prevailed and that’s when we began to see mammals during the Triassic time period that is after the Permian. Back to main page
