which cross?

There is no way of telling where is the cross now. But if Carbon dating has dated living animals to be thousands of years old why in the world would I use that dumb method if I did find the cross?

There's been literally a Forest full of wood pieces that have been claimed to have been shards of the "true cross". You could go to any vendor in Jerusalem in the middle ages and buy an "authentic" piece of the Cross.
Suffice to say, if it ever existed, there's no way to tell.

They need to find it first, presuming you mean the one Jesus hung from at Golgotha.
Why would it still be around, exactly?
Actually, what would this prove? Christians are always doubting the veracity of carbon dating when it comes to evolution, so no doubt they'd sniffily dismiss any claims from this.

I don't think anyone knows where the cross is (and I would imagine it would have decayed by now even if we did).

Even if it could be found and be authenticated, why would anyone waste their time trying to date it with a fallible dating methodolgy?

there are many pieces of the true cross, all are tiny, and the catholic church has never accepted any of them.
what would be the point?

since nobody's *found* the cross, i think the safe answer is "nope"
