n. Geology A specific position in a stratigraphic column, such as the location of one or more fossils, that serves to identify the stratum with a particular period.

n. Geology A specific layer of soil or subsoil in a vertical cross section of land.

n. Archaeology A period during which the influence of a specified culture spread rapidly over a defined area: artifacts associated with the Olmec horizon in Mesoamerica.

n. The horizontal line that appears to separate the Earth from the sky.

n.

n. A plane passing through the eye of the spectator and at right angles to the vertical at a given place; a plane tangent to the earth's surface at that place; called distinctively the sensible horizon.

n. A plane parallel to the sensible horizon of a place, and passing through the earth's center; -- called also rational horizon or celestial horizon.

n. The unbroken line separating sky and water, as seen by an eye at a given elevation, no land being visible.

n. The epoch or time during which a deposit was made.

To limit or bound by a horizon.

n. a specific layer or stratum of soil or subsoil in a vertical cross section of land

n. the great circle on the celestial sphere whose plane passes through the sensible horizon and the center of the Earth

n. the line at which the sky and Earth appear to meet
