65000000 B.C. is a prehistoric land composed of one supercontinent inhabited by warring Reptites and Apes. Dinosaurs and other ancient monsters roam the land, and are hunted by tribespeople from the human settlements Ioka and Laruba. Ayla, the most incredible fighter alive, leads the humans, while Azala, a telepathic, highly advanced Reptite struggles against the humans. 65000000 B.C. is an amalgation of the Pleistocene Epoch and the Mesozoic Era in our own history. Within the former, humans began to reach a fully evolved state, and the latter witnessed the rise and fall of the dinosaurs -- made extinct in this case by Lavos, who appears before his fall in the form of a Red Star seen in the distant sky from the Dactyl Nest and Tyrano Lair. Azala prophesied the fall of Lavos and the onslaught of an Ice Age that would cause the extinction of the Reptites. She was correct, though another dimension exists in which Lavos never fell and the Reptites were able to defeat the humans.
Crono's party makes three required trips to this era; the first involves obtaining Dreamstone from Ayla by defeating her in a competition to drink alcohol. Kino stole the Gate Key after the competition, and the Reptites stole it from him in turn. This necessitated a venture to the Reptite Lair to defeat Nizbel and retrieve the Gate Key. The Gate following the Battle with Magus threw the party to this era; they learned that the Reptites struck Laruba and captured several humans. Ayla and the party journeyed to the Tyrano Lair by way of Dactyls and defeated Azala; Lavos then landed, and the party entered 12000 B.C. in the Lair Ruins. Lastly, the party came to this era to deposit the Sun Stone for recharging as part of the Sun Stone sidequest. After the fall of Lavos, the villagers of Ioka voiced their confusion about the cold weather and worried about the future.

Name Origin[edit]
65000000 B.C. was probably chosen for this era because it is the date given by Luis Alvarez as the rough estimate of the Cretaceous extinction. This event marked a large meteorite's impact at the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, which caused the extinction of numerous animals.
