+**Relative dating** determines the chronological sequence of events or objects without assigning a precise numerical age. It establishes "older than" or "younger than" relationships, often by applying principles like [Superposition](/wiki/Superposition) and [Cross-cutting Relations](/wiki/Cross-cutting_Relations) to geological strata or archaeological layers, revealing the deep past's story one layer at a time.
