Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

An archaic word is one that is old fashioned or no longer used contemporarily and that is what the word DOTH is.

In the past Doth was used to refer to the word DO in a present singular third person manner but it's use is no longer widespread.

For example, "She doth nothing wrong" in the present format would be, " She is doing nothing wrong".
