No land animals were present in Florida prior to the Miocene. The largest deposits of rock phosphate in the United States are found in Florida. [1] Most of this is in Bone Valley in central and west-central Florida. [2] Extended systems of underwater caves, sinkholes and springs are found throughout the state and supply most of the water used ...
The following five timelines show the geologic time scale to scale. The first shows the entire time from the formation of the Earth to the present, but this gives little space for the most recent eon. The second timeline shows an expanded view of the most recent eon.

This work assessed the geologic history of the currently defined eons and eras of the pre-Cambrian, [note 2] and the proposals in the "Geological Time Scale" books 2004, [74] 2012, [5] and 2020. [75] Their recommend revisions [ 4 ] of the pre-Cryogenian geologic time scale were (changes from the current scale [v2023/09] are italicised):
