Warning: That professor told me radiocarbon dating was always accurate...

I listened to Dr. Harris from the University of New Mexico who said carbon-14 dating never lies, then a 2018 paper proved my site was off by 400 years because of a reservoir effect, has anyone else had a lab result completely contradict their field evidence?

Wow, did the reservoir effect mess with your tree-ring calibration too?

Yep, lab numbers don't always match the real world.

Yeah real world testing always wins in the end.
