separation of the continent Gondwanaland is around 245 to 208 million years ago. Between these two periods all seven of the present-day continents probably formed a single landmass called Pangaea. Gondwanaland is named after the Upper Paleozoic and Mesozoic formations of the Gondwana district of central India‚ which display a number of shared geologic features (the "Gondwana beds"). There are also some other evidence such as: the occurrence of tillites (glacial deposits) of 286 million years ago (the
