All organic material must stock up carbon atoms for various reasons, some of which randomly happen to be carbon-14. Scientists can use its level of radioactivity and compare it to the half life of carbon-14, which is the time taken for it to become half as radioactive as before. For Carbon-14, this is 5,730 years.
