Alfred Wegener (a meteorologist - someone who studies the weather) was the man who saw that there were both fossils in Brazil and Africa. He also noticed that the coast fitted together, like a jigsaw. His theory was that there has been one big continent, which he named Pangaea. In 1912, there was no way of measuring the up to 10cm per year moving if the continents. Geologists believed that there has been a giant land-bridge between brazil and africa. In 1960, he was proved correct, because there were ways of measuring continental drift.
