rhythmite — sedimentary rocks from deep time where each laminae preserves one tidal cycle. thickness tracks tidal amplitude; amplitude tracks the moon's phase. here a rock face accumulates in real time: every stripe is one tide, the monthly bulges are spring–neap cycles, the heavier swells are years. the past is readable.
