stratigraphy
the layering of deposits, with newer remains overlaying older ones, forming a chronology of the site
The study of rock layers and the layering process (stratification)
the study of rock strata especially the distribution, deposition and age of sedimentary rocks - BACK>>
The branch of geology which treats the formation, composition, sequence, and correlation of stratified rocks as part of the Earth’s crust
The study and interpretation of layers in archaeological deposits
The study of sedimentary rock layers Stratigraphy includes deposition, age, distribution, and other characteristics
the branch of geology that deals with the origin, composition, distribution and succession of strata
Refers to the interpretation of the layers in archaeological deposits By examining and analyzing the layers (strata) and the artifacts in them, archaeologists can learn how past people lived and what kinds of things they did Usually, the artifacts found on top are the youngest (most recent), while those on the bottom are the oldest If the stratigraphy gets mixed up (for example, if someone digs a hole down into it) then interpretation becomes much more difficult, and sometimes impossible If this happens, artifacts are no longer in context
The arrangement of geologic materials, and the depositional environments they represent, in both time and space
The study of rock strata and their distribution in space and time
vertical layering, composition, and nature of underlying peat deposits
(1) The study of stratified ROCKS (SEDIMENTS and volcanics) especially their sequence in time (2) The character of the ROCKS and the correlation of beds in different localities
{i} study and classification of stratified rocks (Geology)
A method of dating artifacts excavated from an archeological site by dating the layers of strata in which the layers closer to the surface represent the most recent time period with each deeper layer representing an earlier time period
Scientific discipline concerned with describing rock successions and interpreting them in terms of a general time scale. It provides a basis for historical geology, and its principles and methods are applied in such fields as petroleum geology and archaeology. Stratigraphic studies deal primarily with sedimentary rocks but may also encompass layered igneous rocks (e.g., those resulting from successive lava flows) or metamorphic rocks formed either from such extrusive igneous material or from sedimentary rocks
the layering of deposits in archaeological sites Cultural remains and natural sediments become buried over time, forming strata
By organising finds according to the layers (or the depth) at which they were, it is possible to build up a picture of the material remains (and the implied events) and their relative distribution in time Assuming uniform deposition of the layers in a cave with no geological or biological disturbance, the principles are: Older remains are overlaid by successively younger (more recent) remains the law of superposition A feature which cuts into a layer, must be younger than the layer itself the law of cross-cutting relationships Fragments of an older layer may be incorporated into a younger layer, but not vice versa The concept was developed by Pitt-Rivers
the study of vertical sequences of rock layers
The study of various deposits, built up over time, which form delineated layers (such as ash, charcoal or crushed shell) in the earth walls of a pit
