I would say that the major argument that it dates to 63 BCE or earlier is the lack of mention of Pompey, but given the fragmentary nature of the text, even this is uncertain.

 Seeds of conspiracy: The Oratory of Cicero
The period of his life between 68 and 64 BCE was his most politically productive, during which he successfully climbed the Roman political ladder almost to its pinnacle, the consulship, despite allegations of extortion and infidelity.
In the conspiracy of 65, the plan was to murder the newly appointed consuls on 25 January, which would have left a power vacuum that the conspirators could fill.
One reason for this was that in 65 Catiline was still involved in his African lawsuit, and was acquitted by those whom he was supposedly plotting to kill, including one Senator Torquatus.

65 B.C.E. Prosecuted again in 65, after Manilius had been convicted, Cornelius was represented by Cicero.
The de maiestate charge was based on Cornelius' refusal to respect another tribune's veto during the procedural skirmishes over the election reform law of 67 B.C.E. If Cicero's defense was not enough, Cornelius' acquittal was secured when the offended tribune, Servilius Globulus appeared on his behalf.
His aedileship was marked by extraordinarily lavish games (paid for, it is believed, by Crassus) at which he displayed the heretofore banished Marian trophies of his family.

In 65 BCE the Roman general, Pompey, in Damascus, favoured Hyrcanus after Aristobolus put on a gaudy display of defiance, using what Josephus described as ‘young swaggerers’ dressed in all their finery.
This in turn led him to kill their two sons, Aristobolus and Alexander in 7 BCE when he rightly suspected that they were trying seize power and avenge the death of their mother.
Before that, in 30 BCE, he executed John Hyrcanus II, by then, a harmless old man, (before that he was a harmless young and middle aged one).

Medes, the land she came from was green, rugged and mountainous, and she found the flat, sun-baked terrain of Mesopotamia depressing, so the king decided to recreate her homeland by building an artificial mountain with rooftop gardens.

The Qumran scrolls date from approximately 250 BCE to about 65 CE, and give us texts of the Bible that were copied more than 1000 years earlier than any others now extant.
The most commonly accepted scholarly opinion is that the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, belonged to the library of an ascetic, monastic and separatist Jewish sect called the Essenes, who had retreated to Qumran.
The manuscript, written in the characteristic script of the Herodian period (second half of the first century BCE), includes the partial text of the Ten Commandments.

 Indo-Scythians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Around 175 BCE, the Yuezhi tribes (probable related to the Tocharians) who lived in modern day Gansu, were defeated by the Xiongnu (Huns) tribes, and had to migrate towards the West into the Ili river area.
Sometime after 155 BCE, the Yuezhi were again defeated by an alliance of the Wusun and the Xiongnu, and were forced to move south, again displacing the Scythians, who migrated south towards Bactria, and south-west towards Parthia and Afghanistan.
The presence of the Scythians in north-western India during the 1st century BCE was contemporary with that of the Indo-Greek Kingdoms there, and it seems they initially recognized the power of the local Greek rulers.
