To determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones. This is called the Rule of Superposition. ... With absolute age dating, you get a real age in actual years

Why is Pompeii referred to as the "lost city?
ollegr [7]

The correct answer is - A.) It was hidden under 60 feet of ash for 1700 years.

The city of Pompeii was located on the side of the Vesuvius volcano in Italy. It was not a big or very important city at the time, but it became famous much latter in the future.

After an eruption from Vesuvius, the city and its inhabitants, were all buried under 60 feet of ash. That was a tragic moment in the history, but it is a ''gold mine'' for the archaeologists as everything remained perfectly well preserved, and that was of great help in reconstructing the life of the people in that period of time.
