Thanks for the article. I'm hardly in agreement with each of your arguments but agree that C14 dating is probably determinative. Of course I also don't subscribe to the "old wood" theory so would date G1 to approximately 2750 BC until better testing or more data is avbailable.

I think you misspoke here;

"But radiocarbon dating indicates the date of the death of the tree; If it's already old recycled wood which was used to make the mortar that explains an older dating."

The reality is that only the outside of a tree is "alive". At the least the carbon atoms in the tree are fixed at the time they grew so the inside of the tree will carbon date older than the outside.

Not all the ideas related to a much older pyramid are derived from Sitchen. There are several logical reasons to suppose the pyramids are older though most have no evidence or only tenuous evidence at best.
