tidsbestämningen
Tidsbestämningen, often translated as "time determination" or "dating," refers to the process of establishing the age of an object, event, or phenomenon. This is a fundamental concept across many scientific disciplines, including archaeology, geology, paleontology, and history. Various methods are employed depending on the nature of what is being dated and the age range involved.
In archaeology, techniques like radiocarbon dating are commonly used to determine the age of organic materials
Stratigraphy, the study of rock layers and their sequence, also plays a crucial role in relative dating.
