Carbon-14 dating reveals that the megalithic monuments in Brittany are nearly 2,000 years as old as any of their supposed Mediterranean predecessors.
as old as any of their supposed
older than any of their supposed
as old as their supposed
older than any of their supposedly
as old as their supposedly
supposedly修饰Mediterranean,即之前已确定是祖先,但不确定祖先是不是地中海的石头(推测);supposed修饰predecessors,即不确定是不是祖先。根据本句逻辑,大概表达的意思是,本来人们推测这些地中海的石头是megalithic monuments in Brittany的祖先,但是现在的碳14检测发现megalithic monuments in Brittany比地中海的石头还早两千年,因此原来推测出的“祖先”是错误的,因此选supposed更合适
