Data that trees are recording can uncover unique information for a society. The tree rings have recorded information about climate, environment and other processes which happened around them. With this data “a piece of" wood gains greater value, as a historical material and a source of information. The text typed into the tree rings allows us to understand the specific data within the wood.
