…it was all a Sea from above Memphis to the Ethiopian Mountains, and likewise from the plains of Arabia. It was Sea also about Ilium, and all Teuthrania; and where the River Meander now runneth by Meadows. There be Lands also that are produced after another manner, and emerge on a sudden in some Sea: as if Nature struck a Balance with herself, by giving again in one place that which her gaping Gulfs had swallowed up in another. Pliny, Natural History, II, 85–86 (trans. Philemon Holland. The Wernerian Club, 1847–48. London) —The ground of the pampa, Bernini insisted, is a marine formation.

By inventing a marine origin for the pampa’s topsoil deposits, came the Glyptodon’s response.
