Reading it, I was struck by how there are two main historical timelines at Stonehenge, the history of the monument itself and the history of these explanations of it; and that it's in the interaction between the two that our culture has given birth to its own peculiar theology of deep time, for each era cannot help but seek out a past that it finds inspiring – or at least congenial.

Means of quantifying complexity have been developed in evolutionary biology as well, as have methods for assessing trends involving changes in complexity through deep time (for review, see Gregory 2008a).

Three key areas were identified: fossil evidence and deep time, evidence for natural selection, and evolution and faith.

In addition to natural selection, 21 preservice teachers' fictitious stories of humanoid evolution in a study by Hahn et al. (2005) also revealed that they did not grasp the nature of deep time needed for evolution to occur.

Most molecular clock analyses in the last three decades, including those using many genes, have resulted in similarly deep time estimates for the arthropod-deuterostome divergence [ 33].

Our estimate for the deepest time of divergence for Bolitoglossa from throughout Central and South America is ca. 50 MYA (95% highest posterior density [HPD] 36.4 to 62.8 MYA, mean 50.3 MYA), and our estimate for the subgenus Eladinea is ca. 36 MYA (95% HPD 26.8 to 46.7 MYA, mean 36.5 MYA).

In the latter analysis without normalization these peaks were more extended, relatively lower, and slower evolving positions surpass faster ones at deeper time-scales (for example, CAD 1st codon position shows higher PI at 95 Ma than 3rd codon positions of all mitochondrial protein-coding genes).
