It dates to about 10000 years old.

Answer 2

Read more here about both trees here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus_... and here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methuselah_...

There is a fair bit of debate about whether the grad student actually "accidentally" cut the tree down.

Answer 3

Prometheus was the oldest at more than 4,844 years old. It was accidentally cut down by a grad student in 1964 while doing dendrochronology research on the little ice age. Methuselah is now the oldest at 4,849 years old. Both were/are Bristlecone Pine trees (Pinus longaeva) located in the white mountains of California.
