Chronometric dating, also known as chronometry or absolute dating, is any archaeological dating method that gives a result in calendar years before the present time. Archaeologists and scientists use absolute dating methods on samples ranging from prehistoric fossils to artifacts from relatively recent history.
What chronometric dating method would you use to date an Unfossilized bone?
WHAT CHRONOMETRIC METHOD COULD YOU USE TO DATE THIS LAYER AND WHAT FOR WHAT DATE RANGE WOULD THIS METHOD BE APPROPRIATE? Because the bone is not yet fully fossilized, you could use radiocarbon dating which would be suitable for the recent past and back to about 50,000 years ago.
What are the principles of biostratigraphy?
The principles of biostratigraphy stem from the fundamental precept that William Smith claimed to be a general law: “The same strata are found always in the same order of superposition and contain the same peculiar fossils.” The subject can be considered under four headings: (1) biostratigraphic correlation; (2)
