Just as fossils can be found among the rock foundations of buildings, so too can interests and vocations be embedded within families. This comparison certainly applies to a research study at Slippery Rock University (SRU) involving two students, a professor and a paleontologist whose daughter is one of those said students. This quartet explored the widespread occurrences of fossils and fossiliferous stone found within historic and prehistoric human-made structures, calling attention to unique insights into the human dimensions of paleontology, which is the study of fossils, according to a release from the university. Examples include dinosaur fossils found in the capstone of a stone bridge in the Gettysburg National Military Park and petrified wood in the foundation of the Theodore Roosevelt Lodge in Yellowstone National Park.
