The most common method would be to study the style of the pottery - decoration, form, and so on.
Beyond this, thermoluminescence - a property available for test on objects that have been buried, is a more recent technique. And requires precautions.

One method is the radiocarbon dating of organic materials concomitant with the pottery artifact.
Recently (ca. 2003), a method of radiocarbon dating the lipids, embedded within the pottery material itself, has been developed. Now, for the first time, direct dating of the pottery is possible.
I think the Neanderthals invented "Grooved Ware Pottery" which was found in association with Amud 1 and also at Skara Brae in association with Red Ochre Paint also used by Neanderthal in Burial ceremonies and the evidence is clear that they achieved Neolithic civilization.
In the Paleolithic age, there was no formal government as we understand it today. Instead, social organization was likely based on kinship groups or bands, with leadership roles possibly determined by age, experience, or hunting prowess. Decision-making was likely based on consensus within the group.
A forensic anthropologist can determine the age, sex, ancestry, stature, and potential signs of trauma or disease from a skeleton. They can also assess the time since death and potentially determine a person's lifestyle or occupation based on skeletal indicators.
The foundations of Africa's earliest villages were based on kinship and lineage systems. These villages were organized around extended families and clans, with social roles and hierarchies often determined by age, gender, and seniority within the family. This social structure helped foster cooperation, sharing resources, and maintaining order within the community.
bones pottery and plastic Archaeologists study the physical evidence such as bones, pottery, glass, what the objects are made of, hidden towns and cities and various other objects.
No. radio carbon dating is only efficient for the fossils of plants or animals. As pottery is an abiotic substance its age cannot be determined by carbon dating
Old pottery from the Stone Age is typically referred to as "ancient pottery" or "prehistoric pottery." These artifacts provide valuable insights into early human societies and their cultural practices.
No. Cro-Magnon were stone age people. Pottery is not a product of the stone age.
Breeding stocks ages are told by the tattoo given at birth; but for a market pig, most pigs age is determined by their weight. Breeding stocks ages are told by the tattoo given at birth; but for a market pig, most pigs age is determined by their weight.
Pottery was important in the Stone Age because it allowed for the storage and cooking of food, improved sanitation by providing vessels to store water, and enabled the creation of more complex tools and decorations. Pottery also played a role in trade and cultural exchange among prehistoric societies.
