Lecturer: Don Wiles, Professor Emeritus, Carleton University

Abstract:
The speaker will describe several technical methods for dating of ancient objects and will discuss which of these may be applied to archaeological artifacts and which are not useful.  A number of these methods involve radioactive atoms.  Carbon¹⁴ dating is one obvious candidate, but potassium-argon is not.  The question is “Why not?’  Similarly, fission-track dating is not useful, but thermoluminescence can often be used.  Again the question: “Why?”  The famous case of The Shroud of Turin and other relevant examples will be discussed.
