| This project requires a multidisciplinary approach and calls for a team of specialists dealing with a wide range of techniques such as lithostatigraphy, biostratigraphy, palaeobotany, geochronology and archaeology. |
| Practically no help is afforded by palaeobotany, and only the comparison of existing forms can be depended on. |
| Research conducted by the Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeobotany in India found molecular evidence that ostriches lived in India 25,000 years ago. |
| The study of fossil plants, palaeobotany, it not only of interest in itself, but can be applied to solving a wide range of biological and geological problems. |
