The article describes the use of geological metaphors in humanistic and social memory studies. It shows how geological concepts are used in contemporary research and theoretical reflection on memory: what phenomena and processes they describe, how their use in a distant scientific discipline is justified, and how comparisons are made between the meaning of a given term in geology and its meaning in memory studies. The considerations are illustrated with the example of two metaphors: sediments of time and the Anthropocene.
