How do you tell which fossils are older?
Fossils found in deeper rock layers are typically older than those found in shallower layers. Scientists also use methods like radiometric dating to determine the age of fossils based on the decay of radioactive isotopes present in the fossils. Additionally, studying the index fossils that are typically associated with specific time periods can help determine the relative age of fossils.

Can you find fossils in your backyard?
If you're lucky, and the geology is right, you sure can. You're looking for sedimentary rock, like limestone, although interesting fossils can also be found in sands and gravels exposed by running water. Most people are not lucky enough to have fossils literally in their backyards, but fossils are common enough that one would suspect that most people are living within reasonable driving distance of a good locality. Even volcanic islands like Hawaii can have fossils. Fossils can even be found in large cities; look for excavation sites, armor stone along rivers, or the stone used in buildings.
