Abstract
This chapter introduces the chronological and interdisciplinary “frieze” which presents the main events relevant (in our opinion) to the problem of the emergence of life on Earth. This selection of events is directly connected to the previous chapters of this book.

Acknowledgements
We’d like to thank warmly all the authors for their help during the “making of” of this “chronological frieze.” We are especially very grateful to the coordinators of the various chapters of this review for fruitfull discussions, comments and critical reading of the (numerous) “proto-frieze” which precede this one: Philippe Claeys, Purification Lopez-Garcia, Hervé Martin, Thierry Montmerle, Robert Pascal and Jacques Reisse. We also thank especially Francis Albarede, Daniele Pinti and Franck Selsis for fruitfull discussions on oldest dated sample, oceans and atmosphere formation. Finally, we also thank Judith Pargamin for her help in the editorial presentation of this frieze and Michel Viso for his constant support to this project.
