Carbon dating puts first modern humans at 300,000 years ago.
Really? How's that? Carbon dating is only believed to be able to date back to about 50,000 years.

C14 will go back as far as 60,000 yrs. There are about 2 dozen isotopes which are useful for dating. They probably used Strontium 90 to get 300,000 years. It is a very good dating method and is used frequently both for original dating as well as confirmation for other isotopes.
