One of the most essential aspects of archeology is dating objects found in the past, and one of the most critical tools in dating historic objects is dendochronology. 

Dendrochronology, also called tree-ring dating, is a scientific method used to determine the age of wood and reconstruct past environmental conditions by analyzing growth rings in trees.

However, it isn’t just a matter of counting tree rings; there is a science to it that has allowed us to understand a great deal about our past. 

Learn more about dendrochronology, how it works, and how it is used on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
