Good point concerning carbon dating, however my assertion remains the same. Accepted theories get treated as irrefutable dogma. So for example, if pottery were to be discovered at the same layer as a Neanderthal site, it would be explained away as a fluke. Scientific theory, especially outside of the hard sciences, is more often about protecting prestige and hierarchy than it is a search for knowledge.
