Abstract

A review of literary sources is presented that examine the dating processes of various objects (monuments of wooden architecture, icon painting, ancient sculptures, fossil animals, plants, etc.) and events (their dates and places of past earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, climate change cycles, atmospheric processes) not only on the basis of dendrochronological data, but using the entire world experience of scientific and technological achievements. Gentle non-destructive methods of dating monuments of wooden architecture, works of icon painting in familiar indoor conditions using adhesive tapes (according to foreign terminology, the scotch method, since sticky and adhesive tapes are united under the common name scotch) are examined and studied in detail. Judgment about the age of wood is carried out according to the strength of the adhesive joint, which changes, along with other characteristics of wood (wettability, density, etc.).
