The dating process that places geologic events in proper sequence is?

The dating process that places geologic events in proper sequence is called relative dating. Relative dating relies on the principles of superposition, original horizontality, cross-cutting relationships, and faunal succession to determine the relative ages of rock layers and fossils. It does not provide an exact age in years but helps establish a chronological order of events. Absolute dating techniques, such as radiometric dating, are used to determine the actual numerical age of a rock or fossil.
