letztes Äon der erdgeschichtlichen Entwicklung im Präkambrium
The Proterozoic is the longest division of Earth's history, lasting roughly two billion years and occurring between the Archean and Phanerozoic eons. It matters because understanding this vast span of time helps scientists piece together the deep history of Earth before the emergence of most visible life forms that characterize the Phanerozoic eon.

Das Proterozoikum (latinisiertes abgeleitetes Kompositum aus den griechischen Wörtern πρότερος próteros, deutsch ‚vorherig‘, ‚früh‘ und ζῶον zôon, deutsch ‚Lebewesen‘), früher auch Algonkium oder Eozoikum genannt, ist ein Äon der Geologischen Zeitskala. Es ist das jüngste Äon des Präkambriums und reicht vom Ende des Archaikums von vor etwa 2500 Millionen Jahren bis zum Beginn des Phanerozoikums vor ungefähr 541 Millionen Jahren.
