Why cant you date an old stone tablet by doing carbon-14?
Carbon-14 dating is not effective for very old stone tablets because the method is only accurate up to about 50,000 years due to the half-life of carbon-14 is about 5,730 years. Stone tablets are most likely much older than that, so other dating methods like luminescence dating are used instead.
Can a stone arrowhead be dated by carbon-14?
Carbon-14 dating is not typically used for dating stone arrowheads because carbon dating is primarily used for organic materials like bone or wood. Stone arrowheads themselves do not contain carbon-14, so an alternative dating method, like thermoluminescence dating, would be more suitable for dating stone artifacts.
The age of dead sea scrolls was found by carbon dating Could this technique have worked if they were carved in stone tablets explain?
No. Carbon dating tells how long ago something died (more specifically, when it stopped absorbing carbon). Things that were never alive or are more than ~70,000 years old have to be dated by analyzing for other isotopes or isoptopic ratios. I started to explain carbon dating in more detail, but I realized I was going to have to write a short novel to explain it in any more detail and do a good job. So, unless something was written on a stone tablet by grinding a dead bird into the tablet, you could not carbon date text carved on stone. Similarly, carbon dating an old, written text tells you when the plant/animal that was used for a writing surface died. It does not tell you when the text was written (but I believe that, generally, the ages are fairly close).
Can carbon dating measure stone?
Generally not. Radiocarbon dating generally cannot date materials older than about 50,000 years, and most rocks are millions to hundreds of millions of years old. Additionally, most rocks do not have asignificant carbon content. One exception comes in partly burned vegetation buried in volcanic rock, which can be fairly young.
How old is the kaaba by carbon dating?
Carbon dating is not applicable to the Kaaba as it is made of stone. The Kaaba is estimated to have been established around 2,000 BCE by Prophet Ibrahim.
Could radiocarbon dating be used to determine the age of a stone artifact?
Radiocarbon dating is typically used to date organic materials that were once alive, like wood or bone, but not stone artifacts. Stones do not contain carbon that can be dated, so alternative methods, such as luminescence dating or stratigraphic analysis, would be more appropriate for determining their age.

Can radiocarbon dating be used to measure the age of stone walls of the ancient civilizations?
Radiocarbon dating is not typically used to date stone walls, as it is primarily used for organic materials that contain carbon. For stone walls, other dating methods like optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) or thermoluminescence dating are more appropriate, as these techniques can determine the last time the minerals in the stone were exposed to light or heat.
What is the stone that Moses carry's?
