About Lewis Hunton

  • Lewis Hunton (August 1814 – 17 February 1838) was a geologist who made important early contributions to the development of the idea that the geological succession could be sub-divided through analysis of its fossil content, at a time when such ideas were yet to be widely accepted.
  • This principle, later dubbed biostratigraphy, became a fundamental aspect of the modern science of geology.
  • Little detail of his life exists and, as far as the author can ascertain, there are no surviving images of Lewis.
