Radiocarbon dating.
Reason: Bone contains organic carbon (collagen) that can be dated by measuring C-14 decay, giving direct ages (accurate up to ~50,000 years with appropriate pretreatment). Dendrochronology applies to wood, and depth or inferred "age of the society" are indirect and less reliable.
