Meh. Carbon dating has been proven faulty by the Jehoobers Witnesses. God makes their tests malfunction, so the necessariy conclusion is that the dating is at least 94,000 years off.

It makes you wonder what kind of life he or she lived.
I think it's interesting, too. If you would ever like to read good fiction based on archealogical findings from the ice ages, The Earth Children series by Jean M. Auel is excellent. The first book is the Clan of the Cave Bear. Jean Auel can be very verbose and overly descriptive of flora and fauna, but once you get into the meat of the book it's a great story and difficult to put down.

"...One of the reasons we know that the earth is less than 50,000 years old is because of the biblical record...
...Humans are naturally biased. We tend to see what we want to see, and explain away unwanted data..."
This is why the article (and hence, the bible) is no more believable than carbon-14 dating or the scientists who use it. -

There are many dating methods used, and if they all match up, they could be reliable.
