La datación dendrocronológica en el estudio de los edificios históricos

Dendrochronology emerges as a powerful tool for dating and provenance analysis of timber in historic buildings, offering precise insights into architectural heritage. This study demonstrates its application to the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Palestine, revealing the geographic origin of its timber through innovative sampling techniques and statistical analysis. The research highlights the technique's potential for restoration and conservation efforts by addressing challenges such as sample collection, data interpretation, and the limitations of dendroprovenance. By integrating these methodologies, the study provides a robust framework for understanding the construction timeline and material origins of culturally significant structures.
