Are ARCHAEOLOGICAL DATING METHODS accurate? | QUESTION TIME

LIVE - Thursday 20th October, 2022 at 8:00pm BST
We answer a question from our Patreon member Simon Caulfield: "Are the current methods of dating entirely accurate or is there potential for certain structures to be older or indeed younger?" It's a great question - and we hope to do it justice as well as illuminating a few of the nuances of archaeological dating techniques along the way.
If you'd like a chance of having your own question answered by Michael and Rupert in a future show, please leave it in the comments below. (Not in the live chat during this show). Please bear in mind a few guidelines to improve the chances of your question being considered:
1. While providing a bit of context is good, please ensure that the essential question is distilled down to 70 characters or less so that it can form the title of the RUclips show.
2. Try to bear in mind what sort of question might have appeal for a general interested audience. Esoteric or obscure subject matters probably won't help the click-through rate!
3. Play to our strengths, if possible. Anthropology questions are a bit outside our remit and - of course - the question must be about prehistory.
