    This document outlines key figures and discoveries in the timeline of evolutionary thought from the 1700s to the early 1900s. It shows that Linnaeus established the hierarchical system of classification in 1707. Cuvier founded paleontology in 1767 and Hutton proposed the theory of gradualism in 1795. Lamarck published his theory of evolution in 1809, the same year Darwin was born. Darwin published his theory of natural selection in 1859 after returning from his voyage on the Beagle and Wallace independently came to similar conclusions. Mendel's experiments on heredity were published in 1865 and his work was rediscovered in 1900. DNA was demonstrated to be the genetic material in 1943.
