Research in Tree Ring Dating
One of the earliest methods of absolute dating used in the archaeological sciences is tree ring dating, which uses the affects of climate on the growth of specific species of trees to pinpoint when a tree was cut down.

Tree Rings and Cultural Heritage
The study of tree rings can provide far more cultural information than simply the date a tree was cut down, as this study of the medieval German town of Lubeck demonstrates.

What is Dendrochronology?
Just what the heck is dendrochronology? Dendrochronology is the use of growth rings in trees for dating events in the past. Learn how it's done, what scientists were involved in the research, and where it's been used.
