Researcher team that consists of 17 men from New York American Museum of Natural History, Ohio State University, and Whichita State University made research in South Pole (1969-1970) on purpose to prove Wagener’s theory. From the result of research, it is proved that South Pole 200 billion years ago lies near the equator. Therefore, it should be at that time in South Pole is found animals and plants.

The kind of that fossil is found in region of South and North America. That proves theories bout movement of continents approaches truth.
