| − | '''Summary:''' In this chapter of BFDS Vinny woke up early and was feeling homesick. After she woke up she went exploring around the site and found the pig jaws and was amazed to find out how old they were. Then she went back to her hut and was amazed to see how hairy her father was, This sparked a conversation on a book she read about how humans also evolved party from sea creatures. Her father quickly told her that the book was wrong and that the author was un-respectable. After she left she saw a man drawing and went up and watched him and learned that he was just there because he won a contest. Soon after, she went to breakfast with her dad and learned that she was going to go and find fossils that day with Dr. Hamiska even though her dad said there was nothing at that site.

| − | '''Geographic Imagination:''' is the way that we interpret the world around us based on our own experiences and knowledge. The way that people interpret the world depends greatly on the culture they were born into, the time they lived in, and where they lived. For example IN the video the people thought it was okay to burn the witch alive, and they never questioned the fact that the Church was in charge. However, today burning someone alive is considered torture and completely unacceptable. Also we no longer believe that the church is in charge. This shows how every societies geographic imagination changes over time.

| − | '''Dating:''' In the book they mention two ways of dating fossils, pig jaws and tuffs. You can use pig jaws to find fossils age by matching them up with fossils found at the same level as the jaw. Tuffs can be used by matching up the layers in the tuff with the layer the fossil was found in. Tuffs can also be used to show when natural occurrences happened like an eruption or a dry spell.
