Lately, just out of my own curiosity, I've been trying to find out more about the fossil record. Where certain fossils are found, how deep, how many, etc. Typical diagrams from high school textbooks are obviously too clean and organized, that's why they're diagrams. So I've been trying to find a more realistic map, and haven't really found it.
Anyway, from what I understand, the deeper the fossil the older it is, correct? So I googled "deepest fossil ever found" and came up with this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/4950540.stm
Is it saying the deepest fossil is of a dinosaur, or that this is the deepest dinosaur fossil? If its the latter, does anyone know what the deepest (not oldest) fossil currently is?
