Answer:

The remains are from the same time period

Step-by-step explanation:

Geological strata are rock layers that are formed through time. As time passes, new stratas are formed upon the old ones.

If an archeologist finds several artifacts in the same strata, it indicates that the artifacts are very likely to be from the same time period. This is why archeologtists study geology, and give great importance to the understanding of geological strata.
