By the cavity size inside the skull based off a human skull cavity size today.
Different material wears down the teeth at different rates. So depending on where the body was found and what plant matter grew there or animals grazed there would determine the food sources.

Could scientists use carbon dating to determine the age of hominids?
Yes, scientists can use carbon dating to determine the age of hominid fossils. Carbon dating relies on measuring the amount of carbon-14 present in a sample to estimate its age. However, carbon dating is typically used on organic materials up to around 50,000 years old, so other dating methods may be necessary for older hominid fossils.
Are there any cavemen alive anymore?

The hominid fossil has the same number of bones in its hand as a gorilla. what type of evidence for evolution does this represent?
