A formation or geological formation is the fundamental unit of lithostratigraphy. A formation consists of a certain number of rock strata that have a comparable lithology, facies or other similar properties. Formations are not defined on the thickness of the rock strata they consist of and the thickness of different formations can therefore vary widely.
The concept of formally defined layers or strata is central to the geologic discipline of stratigraphy. Formations can be divided into members and are themselves frequently parcelled together in groups.
Usefulness of formations
The definition and recognition of formations allow geologists to correlate geologic strata across wide distances between outcrops and exposures of rock strata.
Formations were initially described to be the essential geologic time markers based on relative ages and the law of superposition. The divisions of the geological time scale were the formations described and put in chronological order by the geologists and stratigraphers of the 18th and 19th centuries.
Today we're looking at Stratigraphic Hierarchy, or how we start to make sense of all the rocks we have on Earth!

Why is Archaeology UNDERGROUND? (Site Formation Processes)
Welcome to Questions of Doom. In this series, we answer your questions about Archaeology and our shared heritage.
Today, I take a walk to explore and explain the processes which form stratigraphy and bury archaeological sites... How does Archaeology end up underground?

Stratigraphy complete lecture | It's types | All the principles | #JAM #GSI
This is the first video of Stratigraphy series. In this video i have discussed about
1) What is stratigraphy?
2)why is it actually important?
3)It's various types
4) Finally the principles of Stratigraphy.
I think i have covered all of these in brief. And there is no need to follow any other
video regarding the introduction of Stratigraphy.
I request all the viewers who are watching my video, please do subscribe,
like,share and press the bell icon....For which i will be appriciated
Actually all the editing of this video has been done by my brother and me.
So you have give us the result of our passion. then it is upto you that you
are doing the sum or not.
