The dispersed remnants of stellar nurseries, stellar associations provideunparalleled samples of coeval stars critical for studies of stellar andplanetary formation and evolution. The Carina Stellar Association is one of theclosest stellar associations to Earth, and yet measurements of its age havevaried from 13 to 45 Myr. We aim to update the age of Carina using the LithiumDepletion Boundary method. We obtain new measurements of the Li 6708 Angstrom,absorption feature in likely members using optical spectra from the Goodman HTSon SOAR and NRES on LCO. We detect the depletion boundary at M_K ~= 6.8 (M5),which corresponds to an age of 41(+3,-5) Myr. The age is consistent withinuncertainties across six different models, including those that account formagnetic fields and spots. We also estimate the age through analysis of thegroup's overall variability, and by comparing the association members' CMD tostellar evolutionary models using a Gaussian Mixture Model, recovering agesconsistent with the LDB. The resulting age agrees with the older end ofprevious age measurements and is consistent with the lithium depletion age forthe neighboring Tucana-Horologium Moving Group.
