The 'Middle Cambrian' (also known as 'Albertan', 'Acadian', 'St. David's', or 'Saint David's') is the second of three
geological epochs of the
Cambrian period. It spans the time between 513 ± 2
Ma and 501 ± 2 Ma (million years ago). The strange
organisms of the
Burgess Shale fossil site lived during this epoch. The Middle Cambrian is divided into two unnamed
ICS stages.
