The decisive natural history canon is the decisive canon of the Roman Pliny the Elder's (Pliny the Elder, 23-79) Natural History (Naturalis Historia) Book 37 chapters 30-51 of the 1st century — 'amber is the fossil resin of Baltic pine trees, the myth of the Heliades' tears is false, and amber has attractive power when rubbed'. The decisive Baltic canon is the decisive canon of Baltic Sea (Baltic Sea) amber of c. 40 million years ago, and the decisive etymology of electricity canon is the decisive canon of William Gilbert (William Gilbert) of England naming the frictional electricity of amber as 'electricitas' in De Magnete (De Magnete) of 1600.
