Space, things, time, and events; an essay on stratigraphy

Horacio J. Harrington

This paper is an attempt to analyze the meaning of the basic concepts of stratigraphy, space, locality, material things, time, events, simultaneity, succession, correlation, geological time-table, geological key-events, relationship between stratigraphy and paleontology, zones, stages, 'time-rock units', and 'time-units'. Physical stratigraphy is a science that deals with the spatial relationship of material things; historical stratigraphy deals with the spatial and temporal relationships of events.
