Paleontology and fossils described in a poetic way

in #steemstem7 years ago

History... remains preserved... traces of organisms... ancient life...

The past very distant.
There is a border between biology and geology. A study.

Digging... Findings... Studies... Records... Information

Fossils. There's a very interesting curiosity about these ancient life figures. Hence, the study. Paleontology .

Two basic type of fossils recorded.
•Body fossils, such as; woods, bones, shells, teeth, eggs.

This study reveals identity and origin, environment and evolution. It even gives information about earth's organic and inorganic past.
Quarry... Paleo lab...
Field kit, someone is carrying. Field note, someone is writing.

There is the GPS, cannot afford to get lost.
So many other fossils to be discovered somewhere.
Every site found is documented.
Sandstone and mudstone embodiment as hard as concrete, the house of most fossils.
But, those Dino bones gotta be discovered.

There is something especially interesting here. Can't keep it to oneself.

"Food is ready", Agatha announces at lunch time.
Sometimes, you've got to eat on site 'cause work's not done yet and can't be left unattended for minutes away.
That leftover lunch can be finished here. Just get those Swiss army knife, fork and spoon out.

Fossils hid beneath a ton of debris and dust?
Hold on now, fingers might damage. Can't risk.
Brushes work better here. Remember that saying :"always choose the right tool for the right job".
