The oldest human fossils show up at about eleven minutes to midnight on December 31st.
A fossil is any preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a previous geological epoch (from the Classical Latin fossilis, lit. "obtained by digging"). Examples include fossilised bones, shells, exoskeletons, animal or microbe imprints in stone, amber-preserved artefacts, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA traces. The fossil record is the collection of all fossils.
The study of fossils, including their age, formation process, and evolutionary importance, is known as palaeontology. The earliest fossils date back between 4.1 billion and 3.48 billion years and are often called fossils if they are more than 10,000 years old
