There are many different types of names on studies on ancient writing, depending on which ancient language or culture you are studing.

Such as: The study of ancient writing on papyrus is called Papyrology.

Epigraphy, which means writing on something, refers to writing on an eduring substance like stone, etc.

But, in all, the study of all ancient writing is called Palaeography.

Historians date ancient documents through a variety of methods, including carbon dating, analysis of handwriting styles, examination of the materials used, and comparison with other dated documents or artifacts. Carbon dating is especially useful for organic materials, providing a rough estimate of the document's age based on the decay of carbon isotopes. Handwriting analysis can help determine the time period in which the document was written, while studying the materials used can offer clues about its origin and age. Cross-referencing with other historical sources helps to establish a more precise timeline for the document's creation.

Yes.

The Tel Dan inscription discovered between 1993 and 1994, which clearly mentions "BYTDWD" or "House-David" as a dynasty which allied with Israel to fight the kings of Aram. This inscription dates to before 800 BC, and indicates that the dynasty of king David was already strong 150 years after his death.

This is the only external evidence for king David as of yet found which reaches the consensus of most scholars.
