The Ediacara Fossils

These fossils are in the main moulds, casts and imprints of soft bodied creatures that lived in a shallow sea that covered most of Central Australia between 635 and 542 million years ago. That is The Ediacaran Period named after the Edicara Hills in northern South Australia where the fossils were first found by Mr Reginald Sprigg in 1946.
