Pretty savage , right ? It ’s a mapping of Pangea — a supercontinent that form roughly 300 million years ago — map with contemporary geopolitical borderline .
What you see here is an anachronistic mashup — a modern map , complete with geological feature that did not exist 300 - million old age ago , with its various parts relocated to the world-wide position they would have engross before Pangea get down rifting asunder some 200 - million years ago . It ’s a survey of the supercontinent not often seen , and a mind - bending way of relating to the world on a geological time scale . [ Hi - Re ]
Redditor LikeWolvesDo , who posted the prototype last week , trip up across this particular rendition of Pangea atthis roundup of Pangea Maps . unluckily , the source liaison is dead , so neither of us was able-bodied to discover the map ’s unfeigned provenience . At the bottom quoin of the icon however , is a name – Massimo Pietrobon – and an email address ; so , for the metre being , we ’re go to assume he ’s the creator . We ’ve reached out to Pietrobon , but have yet to find a answer . We ’ll let you eff if and when we do .
