How long do brains last?. Last year, fossils were found in the Castle Bank in Wales, the eyes and brain of a 462 million-year-old creatures were found amongst the remains.

“Researchers believe they've recovered eyes and brains and more than 170 species from the site, These include what appear to be late examples of Cambrian groups, including the weirdest wonders of evolution, the nozzle-nosed opabiniids, and early examples of animals that evolved later, including barnacles, shrimp and an unidentified six-legged insect-like creature."
