Yea Flora Fossil Site

The Yea Flora Fossil Site is a roadside cutting on Limestone Road, Yea, Victoria, Australia. It contains fossils of genus Baragwanathia, some of the world's earliest vascular plants dating back to the late Silurian period, 420 million years ago.
The fossils were discovered in 1875, but the significance was not recognized until they were studied in the 1930s by 
Australian botanist Isabel Cookson.
Her work overturned long held scientific understandings of how and when plants evolved.
The site is listed on the Australian National Heritage List.
