title="Chronology">chronology</a>. This usually requires what is commonly known as a "dating method". Several dating methods exist, depending on different criteria and techniques, and some very well known examples of disciplines using such techniques are, for example, <a href="/wiki/History" title="History">history</a>, <a href="/wiki/Archaeology" title="Archaeology">archaeology</a>, <a href="/wiki/Geology" title="Geology">geology</a>, <a href="/wiki/Paleontology" title="Paleontology">paleontology</a>, <a href="/wiki/Astronomy" title="Astronomy">astronomy</a> and even <a href="/wiki/Forensic_science" title="Forensic science">forensic science</a>, since in the latter it is sometimes necessary to investigate the moment in the past during which the death of a <a href="/wiki/Cadaver" title="Cadaver">cadaver</a> occurred. These methods are typically identified as absolute, which involves a specified date or date range, or relative, which refers to dating which places artifacts or events on a timeline relative to other events and/or artifacts.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Other markers can help place an artifact or event in a chronology, such as nearby writings and stratigraphic markers. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Absolute_and_relative_dating">Absolute and relative dating</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chronological_dating&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Absolute and relative dating"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Dating methods are most commonly classified following two criteria: <a href="/wiki/Relative_dating" title="Relative dating">relative dating</a> and <a href="/wiki/Absolute_dating" title="Absolute dating">absolute dating</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Relative_dating">Relative dating</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chronological_dating&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Relative dating"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Relative_dating" title="Relative dating">Relative dating</a></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Relative_dating" title="Relative dating">Relative dating</a> methods are unable to determine the absolute age of an object or event, but can determine the impossibility of a particular event happening before or after another event of which the absolute date is well known. In this relative dating method, <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a> terms <i><a href="/wiki/Terminus_post_quem" title="Terminus post quem">ante quem</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Terminus_post_quem" title="Terminus post quem">post quem</a></i> are usually used to indicate both the most recent and the oldest possible moments when an event occurred or an artifact was left in a <a href="/wiki/Stratum" title="Stratum">stratum</a>, respectively. But this method is also useful in many other disciplines. Historians, for example, know that Shakespeare's play <i><a href="/wiki/Henry_V_(play)" title="Henry V (play)">Henry V</a></i> was not written before 1587 because Shakespeare's primary source for writing his play was the second edition of <a href="/wiki/Raphael_Holinshed" title="Raphael Holinshed">Raphael Holinshed</a>'s <i>Chronicles</i>, not published until 1587.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Thus, 1587 is the <i>post quem</i> dating of Shakespeare's play <i>Henry V</i>. That means that the play was without fail written after (in Latin, <i>post</i>) 1587. </p><p>The same inductive mechanism is applied in archaeology, geology and paleontology, by many ways. For example, in a stratum presenting difficulties or ambiguities to absolute dating, <a href="/wiki/Paleopalynology" class="mw-redirect" title="Paleopalynology">paleopalynology</a> can be used as a relative referent by means of the study of the pollens found in the stratum. This is admitted because of the simple reason that some botanical species, whether extinct or not, are well known as belonging to a determined position in the scale of time. </p><p>For a non-exhaustive list of relative dating methods and relative dating applications used in geology, paleontology or archaeology, see the following: </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Cross-cutting_relationships" title="Cross-cutting relationships">Cross-cutting relationships</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Fluorine_absorption_dating" title="Fluorine absorption dating">Fluorine absorption dating</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Harris_matrix" title="Harris matrix">Harris matrix</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Law_of_included_fragments" title="Law of included fragments">Law of included fragments</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Law_of_superposition" title="Law of superposition">Law of superposition</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Lichenometry" title="Lichenometry">Lichenometry</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Marine_isotope_stage" class="mw-redirect" title="Marine isotope stage">Marine isotope stages</a>, based on the <a href="/wiki/Oxygen_isotope_ratio_cycle" title="Oxygen isotope ratio cycle">oxygen isotope ratio cycle</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Melt_inclusions" class="mw-redirect" title="Melt inclusions">Melt inclusions</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Morphology_(archaeology)" title="Morphology (archaeology)">Morphology (archaeology)</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Nitrogen_dating" title="Nitrogen dating">Nitrogen dating</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Palynology" title="Palynology">Palynology</a>, the study of modern-dated pollens for the relative dating of archaeological strata, also used in <a href="/wiki/Forensic_palynology" title="Forensic palynology">forensic palynology</a>.</li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Paleomagnetism" title="Paleomagnetism">Paleomagnetism</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Paleopalynology" class="mw-redirect" title="Paleopalynology">Paleopalynology</a>, also spelt "Palaeopalynology", the study of fossilized pollens for the relative dating of geological strata.</li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Principle_of_original_horizontality" title="Principle of original horizontality">Principle of original horizontality</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Principle_of_lateral_continuity" title="Principle of lateral continuity">Principle of lateral continuity</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Principle_of_faunal_succession" title="Principle of faunal succession">Principle of faunal succession</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Seriation_(archaeology)" title="Seriation (archaeology)">Seriation (archaeology)</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Sequence_dating" title="Sequence dating">Sequence dating</a> (a type of seriation)</li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Tephrochronology" title="Tephrochronology">Tephrochronology</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Typology_(archaeology)" title="Typology (archaeology)">Typology (archaeology)</a></li></ul> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Uranium%E2%80%93lead_dating" title="Uranium–lead dating">Uranium–lead dating</a>.
