Goofs
During Dr. Daniel Jackson's first discussion of the age of the cover stones, Dr. Barbara Shore mentions carbon dating. Carbon dating technique would be useless on stone or metal; it can give the age only of once-living matter. However, the carbon dating might have been used on discovered organic residue that the cover stones were placed on top of or that has some other connection to them.
