The Tippecanoe sequence was the cratonic sequence or the marine transgression following the Sauk sequence; it extended from roughly the Middle Ordovician to the Early Devonian. The Tippecanoe is bound by two Unconformities, at the base by the Knox Unconformity, and at its top the Wallbridge Unconformity.
