Fossilisation is a natural process over huge amounts of time. Civilizations do not use any method of fossilisation.
Trace fossils
Fossil rocks are rocks containing the bones of ancient animals like dinosaurs. Also the shells of clams, snails, sea urchins, corals, plants: in fact the remains, traces or indications of life in the past
water saves bones Because as the river erodes the soil beneath it and on the banks, the fossils that lie buried there are exposed and wash into the river; then the suspended soil settles onto the fossils in the river bed and covers them again.
Yes, footprints that are preserved in rock, such as those of extinct dinosaurs, are fossils. Such fossils are known as ''trace fossils'' , as opposed to ''body fossils'' which are fossilized remnants of the hard parts of these ancient organisms.
A simple gaze at a map of the ancient civilizations indicates that the first Civilizations of the world built their societies near rivers and seas. This was due to the ancient man being heavily dependent on farming so the rivers and the seas helped him in his everyday farming activities.
A paleontologist studies fossils, which are remnants of past life forms. They are typically involved in both the biosphere, as they study ancient life forms, and the geosphere, as fossils are found in various rock layers.
The first fossils were likely discovered by early humans thousands of years ago. However, formal recognition of fossils as remnants of ancient life and the development of the science of paleontology began in the 17th and 18th centuries. The first fossil recognized as such was a large tooth found in the 17th century.

The ancient Chinese thought that dinosaur fossils were dragon skeletons.
Paleontologists are scientists who specialize in the study of past life through the examination of preserved remains of ancient organisms. They work to uncover information about evolutionary relationships, biodiversity, and past ecosystems by studying fossils and other remnants.
Molecular fossils are preserved organic molecules derived from ancient organisms, providing insights into past environments and evolution. These molecular remnants can include lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids found in rocks, sediments, or other geological materials. They are used by scientists to study the history of life on Earth and understand biological and ecological changes over time.
By definition, we could say all three fossils are 'ancient'. Fossils provide an ancient record of plants and animals.
