James Hutton and Joseph Black, natural philosophers, talking together. James Hutton (June 3, 1726 - March 26, 1797) was a Scottish geologist, physician, chemical manufacturer, naturalist, and experimental agriculturalist. He originated the theory of uniformitarianism - a fundamental principle of geology - that explains the features of the Earth's crust by means of natural processes over geologic time.

Charles Lyell (November 14, 1797 - February 22, 1875) was a Scottish geologist. Lyell at first embarked on a legal career, but his interests in geology led to his appointment as secretary of the Geological Society in 1823. In 1830-33 he published his three-volume masterpiece, Principles of Geology. In it, he provided proof to support the principle of Uniformitarianism stated by James Hutton. He is buried in Westminster Abbey.

The Temple of Jupiter Serapis at Puzzuoli, Naples, Italy. This Roman temple was partially submerged after construction, and was subsequently uplifted. The roughened area in the middle of each column shows the effect of marine rock-boring clams (Lithodomus); the dividing line and the smooth area at the bottom of each column shows how far it was buried in sediment, thus avoiding the clams.
