About
Geochronology isn't just about lining up events—it's about giving them dates. We'll tour how scientists move from relative orders to absolute ages using decay clocks like carbon-14, bracketing with potassium-argon and uranium-series methods, and techniques such as ESR and optically stimulated luminescence. A cross-checked dating of Homo naledi shows how combining clocks can rewrite our timeline of human evolution.
