The earth has gone through many geological eras. A number of them lie one above the other at The Grand Canyon. Thus, it is possible to look at the sides of the canyon walls and see the geology of the region. In many places mountain building caused the earth to fold. The layers became a jumble. In others erosion carried off much material. In such areas it is impossible to see the history of the area in a neat systematic manner.
