During Wegener's time, the concept that "Earth’s crust is made of plates that move" was unknown to scientists. While Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift and presented evidence such as the fit of the continents and matching fossils and mountain ranges, the understanding of plate tectonics as we know it today developed later and was established after Wegener's time.
