Its not from the Cretaceous, it's from the Crustaceous
Except a millennium millenia is a thousand years, not a million years.
65-145 epochs ago might be the correct wording?
"Mya" would be the correct term.
Edit: corrections from MBM, bisby.
If we're being precise, it's also one millennium or multiple millennia (knowing Latin plurals is a curse)
An epoch is a geological age and not a specific time span. So "65-145 Mya" (million years ago) would be the appropriate label. I can't seem to find a label for "million years" (other than megaannum, which is just an SI prefix for years, but I don't think Ive ever heard that used?)
If it’s late then it’s free and that sounds pretty late to me
Millenia is thousands, epoch "Mya" is million years ago.
But as my stat mech professor once said, "what's a few orders of magnitude between friends?"
Edit: thanks to bisby, MBM.
Keep digging, you're close to finding Seymour!

Fun fact: the Crustaceous Period was from 1996 to 2001. Fast-fossilising flour was a pretty bad idea in hindsight..
Sorry, but the time frame doesn't fit. Its between 66 and 145 millenia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous
