Archaeological Discovery In Kakadu

[Thryleon]

Any scientist worth their salt publishes the uncertainty estimates, it's a key part of geochronolgy, or other quantitative technique for that matter.

C14 dating is unreliable post about 45 k due to the half lives of the radiogenic system.  After that time the there isn't enough to measure... Analytical uncertainty exceeds instrumental precision.

Ive also heard that C14 dating fails to take into account the rate of change of Carbon in the atmosphere, and makes the assumption that it is today what it was when the item is being dated.

I dont know much about this stuff, but I am always fascinated to learn about cultural history.
