- The Rhyacian Period ( /raɪˈeɪsi.ən/; Ancient Greek: ῥύαξ, romanized: rhýax, meaning “stream of lava”) is the second geologic period in the Paleoproterozoic Era and lasted from 2300 Mya to 2050 Mya (million years ago). Instead of being based on stratigraphy, these dates are defined chronometrically.
“When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it.
Matthew 12:43 NIV
