Whenever you learn something interesting in, for example, a book, your question might be "Why should I care?" Index fossils are very important in understanding human history, mapping geologic time, and understanding the order in which things came in. Index fossils are so rooted in human history that they even provide evidence for evolution. As you can see, Index fossils might not be the biggest or the greatest fossil, but index fossils are extremely useful from a scientific point of view.
