The Roman coin There are two ways to do this “Relative dating” “Absolute dating”

“Absolute” vs. “Relative” dating Absolute DatingRelative Dating Exact date of an object (can be a time period). Scientific dating only gets these results “This object is from ca CE.” Compares two objects to determine the time period. “This object here is older than that object.”
