About the geologic time scale divisions. The geologic history of the Earth is broken up into hierarchical chunks of time. From largest to smallest, this hierarchy includes eons, eras, periods, epochs, and ages. All of these are displayed in the portion of the geologic time scale shown below. The Phanerozoic Eon represents the time during which the majority of macroscopic organisms â algae, fungi, plants and animals â lived. When first proposed as a division of geologic time, the beginning of the Phanerozoic (542.0 million years ago)* was thought to coincide with the beginning of life.
