| 520 | _a"How Old Is It? The Story of Dating in Archaeology" by James Schoenwetter is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. The book explores the various methods used in archaeology to determine the age of artifacts and sites, focusing on the field of geochronology—the science of dating events. It aims to educate readers about the principles and techniques that archaeologists employ to establish timelines, using both absolute and relative dating methods. The content of the book delves deeply into specific dating techniques such as dendrochronology (tree ring dating), radiocarbon dating (C-14 method), and stratigraphy, which is the study of sediment layers. Schoenwetter describes how archaeologists utilize natural “clocks” to derive accurate dating for archaeological findings, detailing the methods by which these scientific approaches can cross-validate one another to create coherent historical records. With clear explanations and examples, the book elucidates complex concepts in an accessible manner, making it ideal for readers interested in archaeology, geology, and the science behind dating ancient artifacts.
