On the occasion of Earth Day 2024, the Sulcitan Palaeoenvironmental Museum 'E.A. Martel' in Carbonia will host a conference entitled The Fossils of Sardinia: a history half a billion years long by Dr Daniel Zoboli.
The long geological history of Sardinia will be retraced through the various geological periods starting more than 500 million years ago, through the projection of palaeogeographical maps, palaeoenvironmental reconstructions and images of fossil finds from all over Sardinia.

A scientific divulger and collaborator of several museums, he is an adjunct professor of Naturalistic Museology at the University of Cagliari.
At the end of the conference, Dr Zoboli will hold a guided tour of the PAS Museum.
