By Contact Period, do you mean First Contact and if so should this be
Vulcan? ;-)

Dear All,
I think you might need another class for palaeo-environmental period terms,
such as Pollen Zone V, Holocene, Allerod, Little Ice Age, etc
I use the term Early Modern to refer to the period between the dissolution
of the monasteries and the beginnings of the industrial revolution (ca
1535-1690) after Wallerstein's "The Modern World System".
Which class does World War II fit in ?
There may be some broad terms which you might need to consider in
relationship to period terms, for example Contact Period, Protohistoric,
Colonial Period, etc
Cheers, Neil
