Finding the age of an object by determining the number of years the object has existed is the purpose Absolute dating.
Absolute geologic age is determined through radiometric dating, and is the most precise method for determining the age of a rock or fossil within a small range. Relative geologic age is determined by the index fossils that may be contained within the rock that indicate a much broader range of possible ages based on the time the organism existed on Earth.
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)
Relative dating is the science determining the relative order of past events, without necessarily determining their absolute age Absolute dating is the process of determining an approximate computed age in archaeology and geology.
