I've always considered a specific time period to be singular In this case, the term 80's refers to a specific decade The decade was a significant historical. I think that i can see your point, biffo Macmillan says date from = to be made at a particular time in the past and date back to = to be made or begun at a particular time in the past If the definition is correct, date back to should be understood as well, as you have pointed out
According to the dictionary date back to has two different meanings. The '80s is short for the 1980s in most contexts, though if one were writing a history of the 19th century, it might be short for the 1880s. as you can tell from the previous paragraph, i don't use an apostrophe for the plural.
