Abstract

‘Geology: the early days’ provides a brief history of ideas on the Earth and its processes. Among the earliest recorded scientific speculations on the Earth were those of the ancient Greeks, such as Anaximander of Miletus and Pythagoras. Other cultures that independently developed ideas include the Vedic Period of India (c.1300–300 bc) and the Song Dynasty of China (960–1279 ad). Huge strides were made during the Enlightenment period, and the key contributions of figures such as Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, James Hutton, Baron Georges Cuvier, Mary Anning, William Buckland, Charles Lyell, Abraham Gottlob Werner, and Adam Sedgwick are discussed, with the creation of the Geological Time Scale.

2. 地质学:早期
“地质学:早期”提供了地球及其过程的思想简史。在地球上最早有记载的科学推测是由古希腊人提出的,如米利都的阿那克西曼德和毕达哥拉斯。其他独立发展思想的文化包括印度吠陀时期(公元前1300 - 300年)和中国宋朝(公元960-1279年)。启蒙运动期间取得了巨大的进步,并讨论了诸如乔治-路易·勒克莱尔、布冯伯爵、詹姆斯·赫顿、乔治·居维叶男爵、玛丽·安宁、威廉·巴克兰、查尔斯·莱尔、亚伯拉罕·戈特洛布·维尔纳和亚当·塞奇威克等人物的关键贡献,并创建了地质时间尺度。
