Frae Wikipedia, the free beuk o knawledge
Antonio Snider-Pellegrini's Illustration o the closed an opened Atlantic Ocean (1858).

Continental drift is the movement o the Yird'scontinents relative tae ilk ither bi appearin tae drift athort the ocean bed.[1] The speculation that continents micht hae 'drifted' wis first put forrit biAbraham Ortelius in 1596. The concept wis independently an mair fully developed biAlfred Wegener in 1912, but his theory wis rejectit bi some for lack o a mechanism (tho this wis supplied later bi Holmes) an ithers acause o prior theoretical commitments. The idea o continental drift haes been subsumed bi the theory oplate tectonics, which explains hou the continents move.[2]
