Observaciones y contexto

Mary Anning and Elizabeth Philpot were two 19th century English fossil collectors. Although they both came from different worlds, they shared a common hobby: the search for fossils on the beaches of Lyme Regis, an activity that was frowned upon for two young ladies of the time. They were both pioneers in the field of fossils and palaeontology. Their discoveries enabled people to realise that animals existed on Earth many millions of years ago, and that therefore the Bible's version of creation should not be taken literally. 
The first recognised female geologist was the British Etheldred Benett (1776-1845) who worked in Wiltshire, but she did not become as famous as Mary Anning.

Descripción

The fossil record is the evidence of evolution. In order to study it, it is necessary to know what a fossil really is. It is often thought that only animal bones and teeth can be fossilised and that fossils have to be preserved in rocks. 
The activity can be done with your own specimens or photographs.
