'Arctica' was an ancient
continent which formed approximately 2.5 billion years ago in the
Neoarchean era. It consisted of the
Canadian and
Siberian shields, and is now roughly situated in the
Arctic around the current
North Pole. Arctica joined with the continents
Atlantica and
Nena about one billion years ago to form the
supercontinent,
Rodinia.
