Between the years of 1947 and 1956, earthenware jars containing what are known as the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in caves along the coast of Jerusalem in the Dead Sea. Upon radiometric testing, it was found that the scrolls were wrapped in material that contained about 79 percent of the original carbon-14. Archaeologists estimated that the scrolls are about 1,900 years old. Are they right? Using the half-life of carbon-14 (5,730 years), prove or disprove this estimate age. Describe how you are testing this hypothesis.
