- The page labels pre-540-million-year scenes as artist interpretations; its reconstructed maps begin at 540 million years ago.
Field notes
The page separates its visual sources by time period: early scenes are described as artist interpretations, while continental movement from 540 million years ago is attributed to PALEOMAP through the GPlates Web Service. It says the reconstruction keeps the camera fixed over present-day Africa. The project also describes its Dig Quest as eight layers with cited facts, and names NASA, Yale, Harvard, and MIT among sources used for cross-checking.
