Magnetostratigraphy is used to cross-check ages of bones. Similar to how pottery records the Earth's magnetic field in clay, layers of lava containing ferromagnetic minerals (such as magnetite) can provide chronological orders. This dating methodology is called archaeomagnetic dating. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/281738965_An_introduction_to_archaeomagnetic_dating https://www.researchgate.net/publication/281738965_An_introd...
