…The second quarter of the 19th century was in the midst of the Industrial Revolution, and the connection between biological research since Cuvier and stratigraphic research stimulated by Smith was strengthened, and the practical value of fossils in stratigraphy was recognized in terms of the development of underground resources such as coal. The name “paleontology” as the science of studying fossils was proposed almost simultaneously by Ducrotay de Blainville and Fischer von Waldheim in 1834. Although research at that time showed that the history of life was generally progressive, there was little evidence from fossil studies to support evolution by gradual change. … *Some of the terminology that mentions "Blainville, D.de" is listed below.
