1. Fossil Evidence:
* Example: The discovery of identical fossils of the ancient reptile *Mesosaurus* on the coasts of both South America and Africa. This reptile was a freshwater creature, unable to swim vast oceans. The presence of its fossils on continents now separated by a massive ocean strongly suggests that these landmasses were once connected.
2. Geological Fit:
* Example: The remarkably close fit of the coastlines of South America and Africa, especially when considering the continental shelf. The shapes of these continents seem to interlock like puzzle pieces, providing strong evidence that they were once part of a larger landmass.
Let me know if you'd like more details about any of these types of evidence!
