Archeocomputation is better imo. "Paleo-" typically implies geological timescales rather than decades.

Even if “paleo-” means “old” and “archaeo- / archeo-” means “ancient”?

In the sense they're used as English prefixes, paleo is many orders of magnitude older than archeo. Hence words like "paleoarchaeology", which starts around 10kya.
