Usually to begin they use the process of relative dating, then chemical dating. Then look at where the environment that we found the fossil to determine if it has always been that environment. When fossil is found in marine life in a country town suggesting that the environment was previously a marine environment. Study the rocks that they found the fossils to help determine a relative age. This came before that, but after them to give us an approximate age. Then study the fossil itself to classify it into groups to determine which branch of evolution it has come from. Fossils can be found in rocks, bedding planes, (rock layers), trees (tree ring dating). Mostly there are found in rocks or weathered rocks (sands, mud).
