Sorry, but the time frame doesn’t fit. Its between 66 and 145 millenia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous

Its not from the Cretaceous, it’s from the Crustaceous

Except a millennium
milleniais 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)

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.
