Abstract

The International Commission on the History of Geological Sciences was founded in 1967 at a meeting in Yerevan, Armenia. After an initial attempt to form an association of historians of geology at the International Geological Congress (IGC) in Copenhagen in 1960, a fresh proposal was approved at the following IGC in New Delhi, in 1964. Steps were then taken that led to the formal establishment of INHIGEO at Yerevan three years later.
