Archaeologists rely on various types of evidence to determine when people first populated the Americas, including carbon dating of artifacts and remains, genetic analysis of human migration patterns, and studying the distribution of ancient tools and settlements. By combining these different lines of evidence, archaeologists can establish a more complete picture of when and how people first arrived in the Americas.
Archaeological evidence is limited by what has survived over time, which may not accurately represent the full diversity of practices within a culture. Additionally, biases in the preservation of certain materials can skew the archaeological record. Interpretations of evidence can also be influenced by the biases and perspectives of the archaeologists themselves.
By examining teeth, growth plates in bones, and the development of bones, archaeologists can estimate a person's age at the time of death. Additionally, analysis of burial practices, grave goods, and other artifacts can provide clues to the age of the individual.
Archaeologists obtain information about the past through a variety of methods, including excavation, analysis of artifacts, and scientific dating techniques such as radiocarbon dating. By carefully documenting and studying the layers of soil and materials found at a site, archaeologists can reconstruct past societies, economies, and cultures. Additionally, advanced technologies such as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and ground-penetrating radar have revolutionized the field by allowing researchers to uncover buried structures and landscapes without excavation.
Scientists still have questions about the purpose of certain symbols and images found in the Lascaux Cave, the techniques used by the ancient artists to create the paintings, and the significance of certain animal representations. They also continue to study the preservation of the cave and the impact of environmental factors on the artwork.
Because we are talking about prehistoric times which means that no written information by or about peoples is available. As soon as it is, archaeologists mark the periods as for instance 'the 24th dynasty' or 'during the reign of king Hammurabi'. Until then, the development of peoples can only be measured by the artefacts and tools they left behind. And we do know that the sequence in time always was stone - bronze - iron. It should be noted however that the stone age etc. is not either a universal of specific period in time. One people could be in the iron age while a few hundred miles away others could still live in the bronze or stone age. For some peoples the stone age ended only in the early 20th century.

I believe that the type of work you are referring to - excavating historic sites to find evidence to suggest certain things about the lives of ancient civilizations - is done by a mixture of archaeologists, geographers, and historians.

There is no definitive evidence to suggest that J.K. Rowling dislikes Americans as a whole. However, she has expressed opinions on certain political and social issues that have sparked debate and controversy among some individuals in the United States.

No. A theory is more certain: it is a hypothesis which has had some supporting evidence.
