Paleontology is important because it allows scientists to create a much more complete map of evolution, and also even helps to demonstrate evolution. Fossils are direct documentation of the history of life. Paleontology allows us to understand more about how we evolved, how other organisms evolved, how life on our planet has changed through time, and how it will continue change in the future.
