Paleontology or palaeontology is the study of
prehistoriclife forms on
Earth through the examination of plant and animal
fossils.[1] This includes the study of body fossils,
tracks (
ichnites),
burrows, cast-off parts, fossilised
feces (
coprolites),
palynomorphs and
chemical residues. Because humans have encountered fossils for millennia, paleontology has a long history both before and after becoming formalized as a
science. This article records significant discoveries and events related to paleontology that occurred or were published in the year 1907.
