Fossils are the geologically altered remains of a once-living organism and/or its behaviour. There are two main types: body fossils represent all or part of the organism's body, and trace fossils show evidence of the organism's behaviour. ... Scientists who study fossils are called paleontologists.

Archaeologists can estimate the age of fossils and artifacts through several techniques. Carbon dating measures the amount of radioactive carbon in fossils to place them in time. Age can also be determined by identifying the age of the layer of rock that the artifacts are buried in.
