Category:Ancient Species

Ancient species are those which have evolved billion years ago or earlier. While life on Earth was still on bacterial level, these species were already wandering through the cosmos; nowadays some are extinct while others remain.

In a more objective and less anthropomorphic definition, ancient species might perhaps be defined as the product of the first and second generations of stars in our Universe (our sun is a third generation star). Some of these, however, may be even older than that.
