DNA evidence and the fossil record indicate are the ancestors of the living cetaceans were land-dwelling mammals. DNA evidence allows to trace the evolutionary origin of taxonomic groups.

DNA evidence refers to the linear order of nucleotides, which can be used to trace the evolutionary origin of a particular taxonomic group.

When the linear order of DNA nucleotides is conserved, it is known as sequence homology.

Fossils are preserved remains of organisms that once lived on the Earth, which can also be used as evidence to trace the evolutionary origin of a given group.
