Intro to Roman Archaeology
The law of superposition is a fundamental principle in geology and archaeology that states that in any undisturbed sequence of sedimentary rocks or archaeological layers, the oldest layers will be at the bottom and the youngest layers will be at the top. This principle helps archaeologists understand the chronological order of artifacts and features found in excavation sites, allowing for the reconstruction of historical timelines.
congrats on reading the definition of law of superposition. now let's actually learn it.
