I was on a trip to Mexico a couple of years back and while visiting a Mayan city our guide showed us a fossilized skeleton he said was 4 to 5 hundred years old. I wonder what carbon testing would tell us on that? Probably 3 to 4 million. Moral don't put your faith in carbon dating.

Carbon dating does not go beyond about 50,000 years.

Try to know something about science before posting again.
