alt Hacker NewsHow about 12,000 years of overlapping ring patterns from paleo trees?
Live trees, dead trees in buildings, bogs, tidal zones, etc.
There's also sedimentation layers from multiple scattered bore samples that will reveal more about patterns of particle fall from the skies and layered flows from years past.

I specifically meant live trees, didn't really occur to me that dead trees could be relevant. Not sure how common it is to find 12000 year old dead trees either but I guess it's more common than live ones.
And of course geological surveys would definitely tell you something about the past

Literally reverse engineering.
