carbon-14 dating  

Définition

  • Radiocarbon is the best-known radiometric dating technique due to its successful application to problems in human history and prehistory for over 50 years. Willard Libby's development of the technique in the late 1940s permitted relative time to be sorted radiometrically in archaeological contexts in a manner that eclipsed the more traditional relative dating methods that had developed over the previous century.
