As currents flow across beds of sand, they often erode various kinds of scour marks. An overlying layer of sediment may later fill these depressed markings, forming positive-relief casts in the covering bed ... The casts are termed sole markings because they appear on the sole, or bottom, of the younger stratum.  6, record 1, English, - sole%20marking

Sole marks, or tool marks, are sedimentary structures found on the bottom of certain current-deposited strata, that indicate small-scale current disruption, or scour. Commonly preserved as streamlined flutings in the rock bed, the responsible obstacle may be a twig or pebble - anything large enough for sediment to preferentially erode and deposit around.  7, record 1, English, - sole%20marking

The initial erosion-producing event can result simply from current scour, or may result when an object, called a tool, is dragged by the current across the muddy bottom. Thus, some sole marks are also known as tool marks.  8, record 1, English, - sole%20marking

Erosional scours on bed surfaces are known as epiglyphs, whereas sole structures are also referred to as hypoglyphs. Together these are known as hieroglyphs ...  9, record 1, English, - sole%20marking
