How to use "Epochs" in context?
The concept of an epoch has been used by historians, archaeologists, and other academics for centuries to describe different periods of time. Even the word "epoch" is derived from the Ancient Greek word meaning "coming-into-being," "beginning," or "first occurrence." There are natural and man-made epochs, and the various definitions for each depend on the timeframe being considered.
An epoch can be as short as a single day or as long as several centuries. Natural epochs are typically defined by the arrival of a new era or species of animal or plant.
