Of what? I done get what they’re getting at. Or is it just a placeholder to make it look interesting?

    When archaeology/palaeontology actually studies eras from further back, they usually have to dig deeper and deeper into the Earth. But unlike in the picture, we aren't actually at the top of any mountain, although mountains sometimes are excellent sources for different layers, but still.

    The point being hat he could also depict it as a pit, but then there'd be no negative space, he'd have to fill it with colours / or black and the infographic nature of the picture would get further diluted.
