The Precambrian is the largest span of time in Earth's history before the current Phanerozoic Eon, and is a Supereon divided into several eons of the geologic time scale. It spans from the formation of Earth about 4.6 billion years ago (Ga) to the beginning of the Cambrian Period, about 541.0 ± 1.0 million years ago (Ma), when hard-shelled creatures first appeared in abundance.

The Precambrian Eon represents about 88 percent of geologic time on Earth. This eon includes all time prior to the Paleozoic Era and spans from the formation of the Earth about 4.6 billion years ago to the beginning of the Paleozoic Era around 541 million years ago.
Erosion of already deposited layers or a time span of non-deposition.
Eon is the broadest division on the geologic time scale, representing the longest time span. Eons are further divided into eras, which are then subdivided into periods, epochs, and ages.
The Earth's geologic time scale spans about 4.6 billion years, from the formation of the Earth to the present day.
