Coprolite (meaning "dung stone" - kopros means dung and lithikos means stone in Greek) is fossilized feces (animal waste). And no, coprolite does not smell bad - it had undergone a fossilization process. Copro means "dung," from the Greek word kopros. The ending "-lite" is a common ending for fossil or mineral terms, coming from the Greek word lithos, which means stone. The term coprolite was coined around 1830 (when the earliest-known specimens were found).

That's a trick question. If someone does number 2 , it could become number 3.
