Question -

Advanced technology gives us conclusive evidence of past events.



Answer -

Gives evidence

  1. Recreates any event
  2. Better equipment and tools help in better understanding of events and situations
  3. Recreation and simulation of events helps in study
  4. Processes like carbon-dating help fix events in a timeline
  5. Technology like CT scans help in the study of unearthed material
  6. Remove fallacious beliefs
Does not give conclusive evidence

  1. Recreated events may not be authentic in context as information gaps may exist
  2. Science deals with hardcore facts; there maybe external factors in history that are as yet unknown
  3. Science judges and draws conclusions based on facts as they exist today; at times they may not be accurate in historical perspective
  4. Sometimes theories propagated may not be actual facts, for example, the theory that Tut was murdered
  5. Not an accurate determinant for human behaviour and other sociological facts
