• MummyRelated: It can help establish when a mummy lived, subject to contamination and calibration limits.

• PapyrologyRelated: It can provide an independent date for the papyrus material itself.

• PetroglyphRelated: Organic material associated with a petroglyph may provide a date, though the rock mark itself cannot be radiocarbon dated.

• Pre-Pottery Neolithic ARelated: Dating evidence helps refine PPNA chronology and the timing of changes between neighboring periods.

• Air–sea gas exchangeRelated: Air–sea carbon exchange influences the radiocarbon content used to date marine material.

• GravettianRelated: Radiocarbon dates help establish the Gravettian’s chronology and regional sequence.

• Historical ecologyRelated: Dating organic remains places ecological and archaeological changes on a shared timeline.

• Marija GimbutasRelated: Dating helps place the archaeological cultures and proposed migrations in chronological order.

• Neolithic EuropeRelated: It establishes chronologies for farming's arrival and regional development.

• Nubian Sandstone Aquifer SystemRelated: Groundwater dating methods help distinguish ancient recharge from modern replenishment.

• Venus of Hohle FelsRelated: Radiocarbon measurements of its archaeological context support its minimum age.

• Nan MadolRelated: Dated organic materials help establish when Nan Madol was occupied and built.

• Norte Chico civilizationRelated: It established the antiquity of construction at Supe Valley sites.

• Polynesian migrationRelated: Dating choices and sample quality have produced competing settlement chronologies.

• Xia dynastyRelated: It helps date sites such as Erlitou, but cannot by itself establish that their inhabitants called their state Xia.

• TombRelated: Organic remains and burial materials can help date a tomb and its use.

• Elephant birdRelated: Radiocarbon dates constrain when elephant birds lived and when their remains were deposited.

• Kathleen KenyonRelated: Later radiocarbon studies challenged Kenyon’s chronology for Jericho’s destruction.

• PalaeographyRelated: Dating a manuscript's parchment or paper can independently constrain the age of its handwriting.
