"C-14 dating was being discussed at a symposium on
the prehistory of the Nile Valley. A famous American
colleague, Professor Brew, briefly summarized a common
attitude among archaeologists toward it, as follows:
'If a C-14 date supports our theories, we put it in the
main text. If it does not entirely contradict them, we put
it in a footnote. And if it is completely 'out-of-date,' we
just drop it."—*T. Save-Soderbergh and *Ingrid U.
Olsson, "C-14 Dating and Egyptian Chronology," Radiocarbon
Variations and Absolute Chronology, ed.
*Ingrid U. Olsson (1970), p. 35 [also in *Pensee, 3(1):
44].
