Summary

Description
English: Map of the later North Atlantic region after the Caledonian/Acadian orogenies. Fossil species on both side of the red line differ for the Cambrian and Ordovician periods, this is evidence for the existence of a former ocean (Iapetus Ocean) before the time Pangaea was created.
